Firehorse ARC. Helping you create in-depth stories from the Middle East.The Firehorse ARC collection offers filmmakers unique access to a vast library of raw video clips from the Middle East and North Africa. The Firehorse Archive covers twenty countries from the region and counting. Our unrivalled access to, and in some cases rare, footage captures all aspects of the region, providing unique insight into its rugged beauty, rich cultural heritage, diverse religious communities, distinctive architecture, magnificent landscape and most importantly its people, as well as the darker side of its turbulent politics and all too frequent conflicts. Journalists and filmmakers narrating in-depth stories about the Arab World will find professionally shot and catalogued content from more than 20 countries across the region, suitable for global digital channels. Commenting on the launch of the exclusive footage, Mouna Mounayer, Partner and Head of Archive said, "Our sister company, Firehorse Films, has been making internationally recognised documentaries on the Arab world for 22 years. With recent events in the region, we understood that our archives held unrivalled footage of World Heritage sites in the vast majority of the region. The professionally shot rushes contain a wide variety of detailed panoramic views and close-up shots of intact archaeological sites and cultural treasures. This body of content represents a catalogue of particular significance - no one will ever be able to capture the same original elements on film again. We felt it our responsibility to make this footage available to story telling professionals around the world, helping them create their distinct and in-depth analysis on varying perspectives from the Middle East."
