20-24 April 2022 Filmhuis The Hague, Netherlands
Focus program: BETWEEN MEMORY AND HISTORY
The 13th edition of the Eastern Neighbours Film Festival, which should have taken place in November 2021, is postponed and will take place from 20 to 24 April 2022. In the focus program BETWEEN MEMORY AND HISTORY we present films by filmmakers that explore (forgotten) histories, and bring them to life in creative ways.
Eastern Neighbours Film Festival presents a selection of recent and high quality films from East and Southeast Europe; countries with relatively small, but powerful film industries. The festival focuses on productions which would often otherwise not be screened in theaters in the Netherlands. The carefully compiled program provides insight into the reality of the cultural, political and socio-economic conditions in the region, and the development of its local younger and older talents. The program includes feature films, documentaries, short films and animations. It connects different genres and themes; from current developments in cinema, to historical specialties; from experimental documentaries to art house films. The festival as well engages current debates and questions regarding film aesthetics, ethics, social issues, film theory and artistic forms. The ENFF annually takes place in November in Filmhuis The Hague, and goes On Tour in Amsterdam (Rialto, de Balie, Kriterion), Rotterdam (Kino), Utrecht (Louis Hartlooper Complex) and in Nijmegen (Lux).
