On Sunday, President Abdelmadjid Tebboune presided over the opening of the National Cinema Sessions at the Abdellatif Rahal International Conference Center in Algiers. This landmark event celebrated the history and future of Algerian cinema, marking an important step in the cultural sphere of the nation.
In his speech following the screening of a documentary on the history of Algerian culture, President Tebboune expressed his admiration and gratitude. “It is difficult to speak after witnessing such moving scenes that encapsulate the history of our country. I extend my thanks to everyone who contributed to the glorious achievements of Algerian cinema,” he stated.
The President highlighted that Algerian cinema did not emerge by chance, but rather as a result of the revolutionary willpower of those who fought for the country’s independence. “What we have seen is not a coincidence,” he said. “They were freedom fighters committed to the cause of the nation, and their efforts extended into the realm of cinema as a tool for resistance and cultural expression.”
The National Cinema Sessions aim to reflect on the achievements of Algerian cinema, while also exploring ways to rejuvenate and advance the industry in alignment with the country’s cultural and historical legacy. The event serves as a reminder of cinema’s role in preserving national identity and promoting Algeria’s voice on the international stage.
