Rasnov Film and Histories Festival is calling for history-related documentary film submissions!
20 - 29 August 2021, 13th edition
10 days in Rasnov Citadel, by the end of July.
No red carpet, no fancy requirements, no hysteria, no breaking news.
So that you can understand what is happening to you.
Relevant topics, smart movies, charismatic lecturers, intelligent audience, memorable debates. Sophisticated concerts in venerable buildings, exhilarating musical happenings resounding in the Carpathian nights atmosphere, exhibitions, book stands.
The Festival started in 2009. It emerged from the desire of valuing an important chapter of local and worldwide cinematography and from the necessity of bringing to public debate those topics with an impact able to overcome the daily transience.
An event during which histories and movies give birth to thoughts and passions, provide information and create feelings, raise questions and argue possible answers. A relaxing and vivid happening, which mixes in an attractive manner the indispensable academic rigor and the compulsory sense of humor. This way, a rather unique event for the Romanian cultural market was born! An event able to raise thoughts and stir passions, to provide information and generate emotions, to rask questions and search for answers.
The 13th edition of FFIR will take place between 20 and 29 August 2021 in Rasnov (Romania).
FFIR is Europe for Festivals, Festivals for Europe certified.
