OUR CONCEPT

Odesa International Film Festival is the main festival of national cinema. The OIFF hosts the premieres of the most anticipated national films, as well as the debuts of young talents. In addition, the OIFF is a festival of premieres. In the non-competition programmes of the Odesa International Film Festival the audience have the exclusive opportunity to be among the first ones to see international festival hits ("Festivals Festival" section), as well as art hits that will soon be released in Ukraine ("Gala Premieres" section). The OIFF programme focuses on so called art-mainstream films - films with high artistic quality, yet accessible to a wider audience.
