Film program
The main program of the festival includes screenings of newly created short films from the region and world titles. The films are shown for three days in the main city cinema and outdoors in the "Cinema Under the Stars" program. After each screening, the audience votes for the films that will be awarded on the last day of the festival.
We hope you will enjoy this year's selection and support the filmmakers by joining us!
