Jury Report To The Participants
Madame First Lady, distinguished guests, filmmakers and other artists, brothers and sisters, Asalaamu Alaikum!

The international jury at the 8th Zanzibar International Film Festival is pleased to present our report to you. In doing so, we wish to acknowledge and to express our deep appreciation for the important work of — and support by – ZIFF festival director Jacub Barua; executive director, Yvonne Adiambo Owuor; Board; staff (both paid and voluntary); and to you, the enthusiastic public, at this successful celebration of Dhow and world culture.

Madame First Lady, distinguished guests, filmmakers and other artists, brothers and sisters, it is significant to note that this respected jury, representing four continents (Asia, Africa, Europe and North America), operating democratically on the basis of consensus, and representing diverse professions are unanimous in all our decisions.

We screened and discussed 30 films from 20 countries: 9 feature films, 13 documentary films, and 8 short films; 8 of these 30 came from East Africa.

We are encouraged by noticing, over the years, an increased number of entries from East Africa. We welcome these evolving accomplishments and we are sure that ZIFF, as a meeting place for professionals from this region, will continue to play a major role in stimulating the continued growth of the regional film industry. We believe this could not have happened without the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and inspiration from filmmakers of the wider Dhow region

We are proud and honoured to have been invited as guests and jury at this unique festival. We wish ZIFF a good, strong monsoon backwind on its important continued voyage.
