Four films will be screened each day, YEE said.

Participants in Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, Morocco and all Arabic-speaking nations in the Middle East and North Africa can access the films 24 hours a day.

Cinema lovers will have an opportunity to watch interviews with directors and producers live on YEE's social media accounts.

Ten award-winning Turkish and 10 Arab short films that have been viewed in international festivals will be shown via the odka.eventive.org website.
