Prague International Film Festival FEBIOFEST
Start date: Sep 19, 2014, End date: Jul 19, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

PRAGUE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL FEBIOFEST takes place annually in Prague by the end of March and then travels to 14 biggest Czech cities. As a global festival orientated on audience, it tries to bring the audience the most interesting films from the last year from all over the world with focus on European cinema. Festival also tries every year to invite as many filmmakers as possible in order to provide meetings with the audience after the screenings. Being originally a non-competitive event, it changed in 2008, when main competition, NEW EUROPE, dedicated to first and second films by European directors, was established. In 2014, 2nd competition, YOU ARE THE FILMMAKER was established for films created on mobile phones and tablets by non-professional filmmakers with an objective to increase film literacy especially among young people. Festival also organizes additional activities, as panels about co-production between European countries, master classes, screenings in multifunctional spaces, and workshops. Part of the festival is also the popular side-bar program, FEBIOFEST MUSICFEST. There is also a “daughter” film festival, FEBIOFEST SLOVAKIA, taking place in Slovak Republic. In 2014, festival also started the institution of charity partnership and supports the Club of Cystic Fibrosis Patients.
