About Film Wala

Film Wala is an initiative that celebrates the diverse backgrounds and languages of Sharjah Art Foundation staff members and neighbourhood residents through hand-picked film screenings. SAF staff members were invited to nominate some of their favourite films. The selected films focus on themes of nostalgia, home and popular culture.

The film 3 Idiots will be screened at Arts Square opposite Sharjah Art Museum, scene of many commissioned art works and performances as well as a popular location for children’s games and family walks.
