Doha, Qatar: Media City Qatar supported a sold-out masterclass organised by RCD Media, one of its licensed companies.

The two-day event brought acclaimed French-Iranian filmmaker and two-time Academy Award winner Asghar Farhadi to Qatar.

Held on May 27–28 at the Mondrian Hotel, the masterclass welcomed 60 attendees from across the country's creative and filmmaking community.

Farhadi, an Academy Award winner whose films have also earned the Golden Bear in Berlin and the Grand Prix at Cannes, is internationally known for A Separation (2011) and The Salesman (2016). He is widely regarded for his ability to craft emotionally layered stories that explore moral conflict and social complexity.

His presence in Qatar marks a significant moment for the local film scene, offering emerging talent direct insight into the craft of one of the most influential contemporary directors.

The masterclass reflects Media City Qatar's ongoing commitment to supporting the next generation of content creators and emerging talent, in alignment with its mandate to advance the country's production sector and creative economy.
