Festival description (Edition: 0)

Festival start: 03 April 2018 Festival end: 07 April 2018

OIFFS festival wants to show and promote long and short movies with an ethical scope, shot in a marine environment.

By following the spirit of Odysseus, engaged filmmakers travel across our blue planet facing all sort of challenges and dangers. They tell us stories like Homer, stories about our Sea. We invite them back to Ithaca to meet with some of the most experienced and affirmed film industry professionals to tell us their amazing adventures, describe to us the beauties of the Sea and the strengths of Sea Peoples, warn us about the dangers the Sea and human kind face today...
