About event
As part of the Košice International Film Festival 2025, which will take place from December 12 to 14 at the Úsmev Cinema, we invite you to an evening block of films that explore the boundaries of love, loneliness and human desire. 💫
This section will present contemporary authors from different countries who, through sensitive stories and original film language, open up the topic of the inner world of man - his passions, losses and silent dreams that lead him further.
🎬 The screening is followed by a discussion with the creators, who will reveal more about the creation of their films and the inspirations behind them.
