The Metropolis Cinema Association is dedicated to promoting independent cinema in Lebanon and the MENA region through a diverse program offering, industry training, engaging young audiences, and preserving film heritage to facilitate access to alternative films at the local and regional levels. We envision a Lebanon where independent films are accessible to all, where the youth are open and receptive to the diversity of cinema, and where Lebanon's rich film heritage continues to be explored, archived, and disseminated. Metropolis and the Cinematheque Beirut, focusing on research and archives, aim to bring together professionals, students, local and international journalists and researchers, as well as film enthusiasts from various fields in an environment conducive to the creation and study of cinema.
