2ANNAS IFF 2016 JUST AROUND THE CORNER

Film Festival 2ANNAS is celebrting the 21st edition this year and symbolically - by starting it’s wandering in the third decade, the focus theme for the year is - “WANDERERS”. On one hand it is a response to the current refugee situation in Europe, but on the other hand - a research into the different faces of migration and cultural diversity. The festival will offer various specially curated film programmes, discussions and events, aiming to uncover the phenomena of migration.

This year, to our great joy, the festival received 50 percent more applications than last year - 2170 films, 1860 of which were submitted for the International Short Competition, 201 — for the International Mid-length Competition, and 110 — Baltic Short Competition. After a careful selection - 57 films from across the world will compete for the “Golden Anna” and “Gypsum Anna” statuettes, films traveling to Latvia all the way from South Korea, Switzerland, Iran, Egypt, Portugal and even Thailand.
