A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s festival unique — to our audience, partners, and supporters. Without you, this event would not have been possible.

The atmosphere, the films, and the encounters once again highlighted the best of culture and the arts: community and shared experiences.

 

We will meet again 12.-16,.8.2026!

 

Stay tuned! More information about next year’s festival will be announced later.
