The basic idea behind the Oporto Film Festival is to promote films that seek new forms and methods of filmmaking. The purpose of the festival is to screen films of quality, both aesthetic and thematic, and also to promote the city of Porto and the production of Portuguese films. The festival has several competitve and non-competitive sections: 1 Official Section - feature and short (max. 15 minutes) fantasy films and European Fantasy Film Méliès dArgent Award; 2 Directors Week - feature films; 3 Orient Express Official Section - Asian feature films; 4 Panorama & Première/Films of the World; 5 Love Connection; 6 Anima-te - animated features; 7 Porto in Shorts; 8 Retrospectives.

Established in 1987, Fantasy Filmfest is today among the biggest genre events worldwide. This non-competitive festival begins in Berlin and tours six other German cities, namely Stuttgart, Nuremberg, Frankfurt, Cologne, Hamburg and Munich. Mainstream studio premieres in the genres of thriller, horror and sci-fi are the major draw of the event but the programme also includes international independent films, short films and a special focus.

In 1995, the organisation team of Fantoche started out with the vision to enrich the Swiss culture with a biennial event for animation of international reputation. Each year, the festival screens more than 500 films and hosts thousands of festival visitors. Fantoche especially cares for the many artistic forms of expression that animation can create. The “International Competition” focuses on films that explore and demonstrate the aesthetic possibilities of the medium and which have an innovative approach to it. A variety of relevant works from the current season (“World Wide Hits” and “Focus Switzerland”) as well as a series of selected feature films, school presentations, exhibitions, lectures, discussions and the children‘s cinemaform the core of the festival. With its thematic and historical sections, Fantoche illustrates the depiction of cultural identities and shows how animation helps to create a global visual language.

Fantom is an online film magazine that promotes non-commercial and non-academic approaches to writing about film. It is devoted to both past and contemporary forms of cinema, and welcomes all new theoretical incentives related to various audio-visual forms. During its five years of existence, Fantom has been published in forty nine monthly issues, some of which came out as special monothematic editions centred around one topic. Since 2009 Fantom will be published in two distinct formats — while the weekly issued film magazine (http://blog.fantomfilm.cz/) monitors selected events of contemporary Czech and world cinema — the bi-monthly published special editions are going to present longer papers that deal with one phenomenon as seen from a greater temporal and critical distance. Some of the special editions will be devoted to selected national cinemas, e.g. Hunagarian or Japanese.

What was originally a small event held in two Prague cinemas has grown rapidly in recent years: Febiofest is now the largest non-competing audiovisual festival in Central Europe. The main part of the festival takes place in the centre of Prague where approx. 300 feature-length, short, documentary, experimental and animated films are screened regularly over a period of nine days. The attendance rate in Prague has established around the 80,000 mark. After the close of the Prague screenings, part of the Febiofest programme then continues in reduced form to another 3 – 5 of the largest towns and cities in the Czech Republic. Febiofest then moves on to Slovakia where the public attends film screenings based on an independent programme.
