Visitors Programme A Different Scenario
From 2 tot 5 April, Flanders Arts Institute organises A Different Scenario, an international visitors programme during Courtisane festival in Ghent, Belgium. With this programme, we want to connect multiple players in the field, exchange knowledge and experience, and nourish an international network of references and opportunities for artists and professionals.
The visitors programme A Different Scenario includes film screenings, a public conversation, a presentation of recent works by artists and filmmakers from Brussels and Flanders, and several social events. During these days we also take the time to reflect on the evolving role of film festivals and institutions in supporting artists’ films, and to address the challenges faced in artistic film production and distribution.
Read more about the (closed) programme and the international guests below, or register for the public conversation on 3 April.
