The story

Babylon Animation Workshops and Screenings in Hillah/Babylon

The training and outreach arm of the Babylon Film Institute, encompassing workshops, script-development sessions, and screenings tied to the Babylon International Animation Film Festival. Available evidence suggests this activity runs largely as a component of the main festival's own combined program rather than as a fully separate, independently branded event with its own dates and audience.

Babylon Film Institute, the organization behind the Babylon International Animation Film Festival, runs specialized workshops and training programs in animation and filmmaking alongside its festival screenings, often in partnership with university venues and cultural-institute partners such as the French Institute of Iraq.
