Cinehouse: The First Saudi Art House Cinema

In October, Baltyuor will open what it presents as the first art-house cinema in Saudi Arabia. Abdullah Al-Muheisen's 1975 documentary Development of Riyadh City will be the first film to be screened at the new cinema in the Saudi capital.

Baltyuor has a trusted team of five people who will select the films to be screened each month. Cinehouse will always include a local Saudi and Middle Eastern film, as well as leading films from around the world. The October film lineup includes Jonathan Glazer's The Zone of Interest, Ryoo Seung-wan's The Executioner, Aki Karuismaki's Fallen Leaves, and The Burdened by Yemeni filmmaker Amr Gamal.
