The festival will showcase nine films selected by the programmers of all four festivals. The films will be available to audiences in Croatia, Serbia, North Macedonia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro until 17 April 2021. Tickets are offered for 25 EUR and individual films can be rented for 4 EUR.
The spring edition of the festival is supported by Creative Europe and marks the beginning of a collaboration and joint effort, while this year’s later editions of each of the festivals will also showcase new, joint film programmes.
“The crisis in the film industry caused by COVID-19 requires us to think outside the box. These key festivals located in the same linguistic region are of different sizes and profiles, but they all share a common mission: to be a platform for the promotion and presentation of European audiovisual content and talent” the organisers said in a joint statement.
