Empowering Women in Cinema: The Story of Emirati Film Director Nayla Al Khaja

2023-12-22 08:04:17

Emirati Nayla Al Khaja founded Nayla Al Khaja Films Company in 2002, to make her own mark in cinema. Al Khaja believes that women’s contribution to filmmaking is extremely important because of their ability to tell stories and tell them from their own different perspective.

She acquired this narrative from her grandmother, who is her source of inspiration, when she used to tell her grandchildren various stories and anecdotes, which prompted Al Khaja to become the first Emirati film director and producer, and in turn to become a source of inspiration for many women and girls who want to enter this field.
