Most of them are screening in Greece for the first time. From the Programmers "Making the program of this festival we stand against the common queries: “what does the director want to say?”, “which is the meaning of the film?”. Queries interrelated with the linear narrative which has been imposed by the film industry. In a different mood we chose films that treat film narrative in a more open-minded way. Films that doesn't aim to tell you something, but speak directly, films that haven't got some hidden meaning but are the meaning themselves. At the same time these films don't set limits on their viewing /viewer. They respect their spectators and don’t put them in the unequal position of decoding."
