- In the Mars 2009 issue of Royal Wings Magazine, in an interview with Hazim Bitar, he was described as a spokesperson of the Royal Film Commission. Obviously this is not true. Hazim Bitar is not affiliated with the Royal Film Commission. He is the founder an coordinator of the Amman Filmmakers Cooperative, a local cultural NGO. He has no royal blood and the closest he had ever gotten to royalty is an Espresso at the Grand Royal Hotel lobby in Amman.
- The View has not been selected to the Toronto Palestine Film Festival. It was only requested for possible selection. In our last E-NEWSLETTER, we reported mistakenly that the film has been selected.
- A foreign newspaper reported that a film by the Cooperative will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. There is no truth to this statement and no such claims were made by the Cooperative or any of its associates. This is a case of lost in translation. But we pray the film fairy will make this wish come true one day.
