About the Festival

The Bitola Film Festival is one of the most important cultural events in North Macedonia, celebrating international cinema and supporting emerging filmmakers. Held in the historic city of Bitola, known as the "city of consuls," the festival creates a perfect blend of culture and history.

The festival showcases feature films, documentaries, and short films from around the world, with a special focus on Balkan cinema. It provides a platform for cultural exchange and promotes understanding between different nations through the universal language of film.

Beyond film screenings, the festival includes workshops, masterclasses with renowned directors, panel discussions, and networking events. The beautiful Ottoman-era architecture of Bitola provides a stunning backdrop for this celebration of cinematic art.
