Seven short films. Seven influential directors from around the world. A portrait of the quarantine which tears down all borders.
The Thessaloniki International Film Festival continues its online activities during the days of the quarantine. TIFF offers for free, through the streaming platform Festival Scope, digital screenings of Greek films from the program of the 60th TIFF.
Top Swiss film director and scriptwriter Alexander O. Philippe, best known for the documentary films Doc of the Dead, The People vs. George Lucas and 78/52 (an unprecedented look at the iconic shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho) will be with us on Saturday, April 11, at 18:00 EEST to present the masterclass Scripting the Unscripted online, on the Festival’s facebook page.
Thessaloniki International Film Festival proudly presents the project “Spaces”. Thus far, 14 directors have confirmed their participation, but the list is getting longer. “Spaces” is one of the first works of art commissioned as a response to the coronavirus situation. The project is inspired by the book “Species of Spaces” by Georges Perec.
