Crossborder Film Conference, Euregion Film Pitch, Short Film Competition, special screenings, networking drinks and many more: discover international new talents, learn from experienced professionals, get to know each other and exchange. Regardless of politics, geography or languages, the film world is always advancing: no borders can limit us.
