Habibi Collective is a platform for female MENA filmmaking. It began as a digital archive on Instagram, with a focus on contemporary moving-image. Based in London, Habibi Collective now regularly curates screenings at galleries and cinemas, both at home and in the region. Habibi Collective also collaborates with those working outside of MENA visual art, having delivered lectures on contemporary female Arab art at institutions such as Oxford University and at festivals in Sweden, Italy, Athens and Slovenia.
