Independent Film & Television College
is the first of its kind in Iraq.

It was set up in Baghdad in 2004 and provides free-of-charge intensive short courses in film and television technique, theory and production.

We train Iraqi filmmakers and also support their filmmaking by providing production facilities and information about funding and further training.

Recent IFTVC Course
We completed our new documentary film course in December 2009.  Our students produced two new films: NA'EEM THE BARBER and A PHOTOGRAPHER'S MEMORIES.

NA'EEM THE BARBER has just won third prize in Student Documentary section of the 2010 Gulf Film Festival in Dubai.

This latest course of ours is the subject of a soon to be completed documentary film made by Shuchen Tan for the Dutch television channel, VPRO.  The film sensitively portrays the situation in which the school is having to operate, the aims, frustrations and victories of the trainers and the personal lives, aspirations and work of the students.
