DESCRIPTION:Dubai rarely comes to mind as a central node in the film industry.  And yet, recently, there have been moves to diversify into film production in readiness for a post-oil economy. Dubai’s centralized filmmaking complex, Studio City, is a designated free economic zone. Given that an estimated 89.8% of Dubai’s workforce does not hold citizen rights to this land and that free zones forbid unionization, urgent issues arise concerning how cinematic capital and creative labour are managed geopolitically.
