Saudi Producer Mohammed Al-Turki Steps Down as CEO of the Red Sea Film Foundation


Producer Mohammed Al-Turki is stepping down as CEO of Saudi Arabia's Red Sea Film Foundation.

Al-Turki, who remains on board as an adviser, will return to focusing on “personal projects and his career as an independent film producer and businessman,” a Red Sea foundation statement said. Commented Al-Turki: “Working with the foundation on these three editions of the festival and cementing Saudi Arabia’s place on the global stage of the film industry has been an honor and a privilege. We have achieved so much, and ahead of our fourth edition we are in a position we could only have dreamed of a few years ago, which is why I feel now is the perfect time to transition.”
