Festival Director, Vanja Kaludjercic: “It’s with great excitement  that we finally welcome filmmakers and audiences to  Rotterdam again and present the films from our IFFR 2022 competitions as they were intended: on the big screen in cinemas. We look forward to seeing you in October, which will be an excellent warm-up event as we continue to work towards IFFR 2023.”

The first confirmations follow the announcement that IFFR will conclude its 51st edition from 14 to 16 October 2022. The festival is inviting films and their makers to screen titles selected for IFFR 2022; those could not be presented to audiences during the regular festival dates earlier this year – 26 January to 6 February 2022 – due to Covid-19 restrictions in the Netherlands. The full programme and guests attending will be announced mid-September.
