RIYADH: The Saudi Film Commission is taking part in the 76th Berlin International Film Festival from Feb. 12 to 22 to showcase its achievements in advancing the local industry.

A selection of productions that demonstrates the talent of local filmmakers and the Kingdom’s expanding infrastructure will be screened, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Thursday.

The commission will highlight the Kingdom’s diverse locations, focusing on major milestones, including “Norah,” the first Saudi movie selected for the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes Film Festival.
