This year the theme binding both programs is about connection – between parents and kids, sibs, lovers, friends and neighbors, and overall the films are more upbeat than last year.
Women comprise 60% of the nominated filmmakers and there is ample creative, thematic and ethnic diversity with a global reach that includes Belgium, China, the Czech Republic, France, Guatemala and the USA, plus a polyglot entry from Tunisia-Canada-Qatar-Sweden!
