A New Day in Old Sana'a is a 2005 romantic drama film directed by Bader Ben Hirsi, a British playwright and director of Yemeni ancestry, and produced by Ahmed Abdali. It was shot in San‘a’, the capital of Yemen, and was the first Yemeni film to be shown at the Cannes Film Festival.

The film was advertised as the first film to come out of Yemen.

The running time of the film was 86 minutes, and versions were released in English and Arabic (with English subtitles).

In addition to Cannes, the film was screened at the Cairo International Film Festival; after its showing in Cairo, Hirsi received a prize of £E100,000 from the Egyptian Ministry of Culture.
