The September film screenings are organized as “returning the debt to the audience” because the festival had to be postponed and restricted several times due to the pandemic and the general public did not have the opportunity to watch the film in the cinema.
The festival has two competition programs Artdocfest – films from all over the world, with a deeper focus on Eastern Europe and _Baltic focus_ – films from the Baltic States and co-produced with them.
Festival winners and film directors from France, Belgium, Lithuania, Ukraine, Germany and Estonia will also come to the screenings to present their films, meet with media representatives and receive honorable awards.
Latvia is represented at the festival by a film by Ivo Briežis Homo Sovieticus and Elīna Langes-Ionatamishvili Restless memories, who won Baltic focus main prize Hercs – both produced by a studio Mistrus Media, as well as Giedre Žickīte ‘s film co – produced with Lithuania and France Leap, co-produced by VFS films (Latvia) and who won Baltic focus award Hercs for the best direction.
