Mario Nicotra, who set up the Amateur Film Makers Group in Abu Dhabi, said
the decision not to allow filming in the UAE was a blow to the local
industry.
“It’s a shame when film-makers are denied access to film on
location, especially as it makes the story more realistic and authentic,” he
said. “The local film industry is losing out. It would have been a boost for
local people, but the boost for film making has gone to Morocco now.”
