None of the films in the international competition Opus Bonum is a CEE production.

The Between the Seas selection is notable for including the Bulgarian film The Last Black Sea Pirates which was developed as part of the Ex-Oriente workshop at Jihlava. The Czech Republic, which gets its own section (Czech Dream, with 14 films), is represented by a Slovak/Czech coproduction Normalization (Kauza Cervanová), a study of the fight by a group of men accused of the murder of a young woman in Slovakia who try to prove they were victims of judicial terror, from Slovak director Robert Kirchhoff.
