Having in mind the current epidemiological circumstances and the health of the audience, guests and the Festival team, the FEST Board decided to hold the upcoming, 49th edition of the Belgrade International Film Festival FEST on the new dates, from May 7th to 16th, 2021.
The biggest and most famous film event in Serbia and the region is being prepared and will take place under the slogan ’Back to the Future’ with the intention to contribute to a sizable return of audiences to cinemas.
This year’s programme will present more than 70 films of the latest world and Serbian productions through several programme segments, which the audience will be able to see in the halls of the Sava Centre, Kombank Hall, Belgrade Youth Centre and Cineplexx Galerija Belgrade.
The organizer of the Festival, The Belgrade Festivals Centre - CEBEF, notes that the programmes will be held in strict compliance with all measures of the COVID-19 Infection Disease Crisis Response Team, and invites FEST audiences to apply for vaccination in the meantime, as the safest form of virus protection.
Information about ticket sales for the 49th FEST, as well as the first press conference at which the Festival’s programme will be presented, will be announced at a later date.
We have splendid films, enthusiasm, energy and optimism. The slogan of the 49th FEST is the film of the same name by Robert Zemeckis, screened at the 16th FEST when it was announced by Emir Kusturica in front of the packed hall of the Sava Centre. This year, there will be at least 500 spectators at each screening in that big house of FEST, depending on the epidemiological situation and measures of the COVID-19 Crisis Response Team.
