“We are on the cusp of adulthood, and like every teenager, we’re facing new challenges. In light of the current epidemiological situation, we’ve decided to hold the festival online and preserve the audience’s and festival crew’s health. So this year, there won’t be some of the events that refine our festival story, but we’ll still have what matters most – great films from all over the world, the same number of them as last year. We’re happy that spectators from all over Croatia will be able to enjoy our screenings simultaneously from their homes, and we’re pleased by the reactions of followers on social media,” festival director Boris T. Matić said.
Some 100 films will be screened in four competition programmes: feature, international short film, domestic short film Checkers, and Together Again. The festival will also present two side programmes, The Great 5 and Festivals in the Spotlight, along with the KinoKino Festival programme for children, which is being held this year under the banner of ZFF.
