Festival 2023
35 mm Vis Film Festival is a unique film festival. It shows all films on 35 mm print. Just like in the past, when we developed our cameras after summer vacations, we looked after every shot, like filmmakers looked after every meter of their film strip. Every frame had to be well rehearsed and everything had to work out. Today, at this boutique film festival, we watch films carefully preserved in archive cinemas in Belgrade, Zagreb, Slovakia and Italy, and in this way, we pay tribute to filmmaking. The great legends classified under the same name “Prague School” are brought to us by festival curators Rudolf Biermann, Mike Downey and Dieter Kosslick.
Experience the charm of watching movies on 35mm filmstrip.
3 days, 6 films and the starry sky of the city of Vis.
