After six sunny, dynamic festival days, the 23rd Crossing Europe Film Festival Linz came to a successful close on May 3.
The capital of Upper Austria once again became a showcase for the present, past, and future of European cinema, featuring 133 feature films, documentaries, and short films from 39 countries, including 13 world premieres and 68 Austrian premieres!
Around 80 film guests personally presented their latest works at the festival cinemas Moviemento, City-Kino, and Central, engaging in direct dialogue with the audience, which once again proved to be exceptionally interested, engaged, and open-minded.
Our team says THANK YOU! 💚
We‘re now taking a short a break,
we‘ll be back on Monday, May 11.
