Only 1 ½ weeks left until the OnlineFestival.ITFS.de! We are working hard to offer our fans a diverse and varied programme. Our OnlineFestival+ section is filled with more and more films, now already about 200, including seven confirmed feature films! Among the feature films there is also a European premiere: “A Costume for Nicolas” by Eduardo Rivero (Mexico, 2019), but also cult films like the Oscar-nominated stop-motion classic “Mary & Max”. The enthusiasm of the filmmakers at OnlineFestival.ITFS and also the encouragement from our fans shows us that we are doing the right thing!
