Thanks to the hard work of several passionate volunteers, the YPP was able to organize an evening of film screenings at the Mercure Hotel in Khor Maksar District of Aden, in May 2014. Here our audience enjoys a selection of films by Adeni and Yemeni filmmakers, and participates in a discussion with some of the featured artists.
Like much of Khor Maksar District, the Mercure has been badly damaged in recent fighting. It is unlikely the ballroom there will ever host another event like ours.
