Curated and presented by Ieva Balode

The programme includes works by established experimental filmmakers who shoot their films on 16mm and 8mm film formats, as well as an ever-growing numbers of new authors. Many films in the programme, either directly or metaphorically reflect on the experiences that we all met during the pandemic. This reveals itself through in-depth self-reflection, anxiety and, in the end - self acceptance found in the films from the programme.
