The Film Fest Gent has become a not-to-be-missed event on the Flemish and
international cultural scene. It owes its success to an infallible formula: a
Belgian premiere of more than 100 quality films and major film music concerts by
top composers.
Every year, 100,000 people visit Ghent and enjoy films, concerts and talks
during Film Fest Gent, Belgium’s biggest international film festival.
The movies shown during the festival are mainly films that are not in the
regular offer in Belgium. Additionally, numerous films find their way to the
Belgian audience through pre-premières at this festival.
Film Fest Gent pays close attention to film music, putting an often
underestimated branch of the film industry in the spotlight. Composers and film
music professionals from all over the world travel to Ghent for unique concerts,
film music seminars, workshops and masterclasses. Since 2001, Film Fest Gent has
also organised the World Soundtrack Awards: an annual awards ceremony for film
music during the festival.
Awards are presented each year during Film Fest Gent:
* Official Competition (for best film)
* World Soundtrack Awards
* Joseph Plateau Honorary Award (for festival guests who have left an indelible
mark on filmmaking)
* International Short Film competition
* Competition for Best Belgian Student Short
* Explore Zone (for films for and by young people)
* North Sea Port Audience Award
Want to take a break in between all those films or want the opportunity to
discuss what you’ve just watched with other people? Then the Film Fest Café
across from Kinepolis Gent is the place to be. You can choose from many
delicious snacks and/or drinks. Another advantage: during the daily FFG Talkies,
you can listen to an interesting conversation between directors, actors or
artists. Are you enjoying Film Fest Gent in one of the other locations? You will
have ample opportunity to enjoy a drink there too.
2023 marks the fiftieth anniversary of Film Fest Gent. This calls for
celebrations throughout the year. The cherry on the (birthday) cake will be when
all films of the past few years will become available on the website
[https://www.filmfestival.be/en/archief].
In honour of Film Fest Gent’s 50th anniversary, 25 film composers from all over
the world composed a short piece of music.
[https://www.filmfestival.be/en/festival/25x2] These scores were the starting
point for 25 short films, which will be presented during the festival. So for
once, music was the inspiration for the films instead of the other way round.
FFG Remake
For its 50th anniversary, Film Fest Gent presents a collection of sustainable
accessories: FFG Remake, a partnership with sustainable design firm Volmaakt,
students from HoWest and Luca School of Arts. The students designed new products
made from old promotional materials of Film Fest Gent. They were made in
partnership with sustainable design firm Volmaakt. Want to take a piece of film
festival history home with you? That’s possible. You can purchase these unique
designer pieces at Volmaakt (located in Speldenstraat 1) during an exhibition in
the last two weekends of September and the first two weekends of October and
during the film festival itself.
