The Thessaloniki Film Festival is intensifying its efforts for the greater extroversion of Greek cinema and its promotion abroad. The Festival gives the opportunity to film professionals from Greece who have participated in the Festival’s industry section, Agora, to travel to large international film festivals, in order to promote their work. The actions are implemented within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan "Greece 2.0" with the funding of the European Union - NextGenerationEU, within the integrated project "SUB 6.3 - Market extroversion of the Thessaloniki Film and Documentary Festival".

Τhe deadline window for the submission of podcasts for the Podcast Section of the 26th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival is extended until the 31st January 2024, at 5pm.

The 26th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival is hosting a tribute to the fearless and pioneering cinema of Panayotis Evangelidis, also bestowing an honorary Golden Alexander to the beloved director, author and translator for his overall contribution to cinema and culture. 

Documentaries that honor and praise the liberating act of self-determination, having left their mark on world queer cinema, take center stage at the grand tribute “Citizen Queer” of the 26th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival (7-17/3/2024).

Happy Holidays!
