Cinema in Kuwait was introduced in the mid-20th century. The dominance of American cinema posed a problem in the formation of Arab cinema in general and of Kuwaiti cinema in particular. French film critic Guy Hennebelle argued that Arab intellectuals became convinced that only imitating the American culture could they overcome national decline and backwardness. This caused an absence of real Kuwaiti personality and character. However, Kuwaitis preserved their national identity by producing and broadcasting local content in their television channels. Which was a balance between protecting and preserving their national identity while also satisfying other preferences. The domination of American films and other foreign produced films has the Kuwaiti cinema imitate and depend on it for so long. In 1971, Khalid Alsidiqq directed the first Kuwaiti feature film that talks about its cultural heritage and history. Recently, the cinema industry in Kuwait employs a strong usage of local culture and tradition.
