Festival sections and prizes
The main part of the programme consists from the competitive section, where the over-all award has, for example, been given to the Palestinia film Omar (directed by Hany Abu-Assadan), the Italian drama Via Castellana Bandiera (done by Emme Dante) and the French feature La guerre est déclarée, of which the author is Valérie Donzelli.
Another important section presents new pieces from national cinematographies, with some of the countries in focus up until now being Italy, France and Sweden. There is also a section that is specifically aimed towards the pre-teen audiences and one that presents directorial débuts, out of which a winner is chosen as well. Some other awards, like the one for the contribution to the development of the European cinema, are also handed out. In 2015, an additional section was introduced, which featured only films done by female directors.
The awarded films are chosen by an international jury, which features prominent movie professionals (some of them were up until now Lenka Kny, Pavel Jech, Brendan Walsh, Anamaria Percavassi, and Ubald Trnokoczy). Besides the trophies for the best movie, director and début, there is also the Vilko Filač award, which is given for the best cinematography. Its name alludes to the renowned Slovenian (but internationally active) cinematographer Vilko Filač, whose short retrospective was screened in the first festival edition.
Workshops, lectures and guests
The festival naturally also organises lectures and discussions on different topics like violence (prepared together with University of Primorska), human rights and immigration. One of the discussions on movies featured the movie directors Serge Frydmann, Ali Ozgenturk and Karpo Godina.
