Doha Tribeca Film Festival

The Doha Tribeca Film Festival (DTFF) was an annual five-day film festival that was organised from 2009 to 2012 to promote Arab and international films, and to develop a sustainable film industry in Qatar.[1] One of Qatar's largest entertainment events, it attracted over 50,000 guests in 2010.[2]

The festivals were organised by the Doha Film Institute (DFI), which was founded by Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani[3] which implements, consolidates and oversees film initiatives in Qatar. The Festival was launched in 2009 through a cultural partnership between DFI and Tribeca Enterprises.[4] The Festival was led by Abdulaziz bin Khalid Al-Khater,[citation needed] Executive Director of DFI.[5]
