For instance, short films must include a Qatari national as a director.[26] Animated shorts must be 7 minutes long, Narratives up to 12 minutes and Documentaries up to 30 minutes long.[26] Adding to that, directors are not allowed to be working on other projects during this time,[26] and projects that are in production or post-production are not eligible; however, if the applicant applied for funding in previous years and were not accepted, the same project can be used for re-application.[26] When it comes to feature films, applicants must have produced at least one short film to be considered.[26]
