FOURTH INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF ANALOG EXPERIMENTAL CINEMA - KINOSKOPOctober 28-31st 2022 / Yugoslav Film Archive

Kinoskop is a indie / niche festival, based in Belgrade, dedicated to the exploratory tendencies and experimental ways of working with celluloid in a digital era, and a showcase of imaginative works of cinema which trigger strong audio-visual stimuli and puzzling afterthoughts, rooted in the spirit of experimental, surrealist and underground cinema.

We are looking for fiction, animation, experimental, found footage, documentary, personal cinema, DIY and punk cinema, and the esoteric and obscure, particularly supporting works coming from independent film labs from Europe and the rest of the world.

Our 2022 programs will be curated by veteran experimental film aficionados Nikola Gocic (film writer and critic and visual artist), Marko Milicevic (film author and founder of the audiovisual initiative Kino Pleme), Ejla Kovačević (member of Zagreb filmlab Klubvizija and 25FPS festival collaborator) and Aleksandra Dalichow (founder of ExperimentaL CinemA and film reviewer). Similarly to previous years, one part of the program will be centered on audio-visual performances and live soundtracks, and also a slot for a q&a with guests of the festival.

Films will be awarded in the categories : Grand Prix, Special Mention, Best Soundtrack, Best Live Soundtrack, Curators Award, and Audience Award. Members of the jury will be announced on our page and website.
