Student Film Competition

Premiere:18. September 2021
Length:78 minutes
Genre:Short

A new addition to the programme is a block of student competition films through which we would like to connect the festival with the filmmaking community even more.

In the short films series, we will see various near-future scenarios from different points of view, some alternative history, and examples of interplanetary communication. All by using different techniques and genres but also fresh narrative approaches.
