When I landed in Dubai, there was just one cinema hall: Expat of 57 years

Ahmad Golchin, founder and CEO of Phars Films Group, has lived a life like ‘it’s in the movies’.
Those in the industry credit the 79-year-old who has been a UAE resident for 57 years as the founding father of UAE’s cinema industry. He arrived on UAE shores on board a launch (boat) from Iran in 1964 carrying a copy of a Persian dubbed Mexican film ‘Fight to Death’.
