Mission & Strategy

Fondé en novembre 1988, l’Institut entend répondre à une double demande : celle des étudiants désireux de suivre au Liban une formation spécialisée dans les domaines du cinéma, du théâtre et plus généralement des arts du spectacle, et celle des marchés libanais et arabes en général, qui ont connu récemment un développement notable de leur paysage médiatique. L’IESAV est régulièrement invité à participer à des manifestations internationales, rencontres professionnelles et festivals où ses étudiants remportent souvent des prix et des distinctions pour leurs projets réalisés dans le cadre de leurs études académiques (documentaires, films de diplômes, animations, vidéo-clip, etc.).
