Kinoskop is a indie / niche festival, based in Belgrade, dedicated to exploratory tendencies and experimental ways of working with celluloid in a digital era, and a showcase of imaginative works of cinema which trigger strong audio-visual stimuli and puzzling afterthoughts, rooted in the spirit of experimental, surrealist and underground cinema.

We are looking for fiction, animation, experimental, found footage, documentary, personal, DIY and punk cinema, esoteric and obscure, outlandish and daring works, particularly supporting films coming from independent film labs from Europe and the rest of the world. Festival is focusing on short cinema and usually includes one feature film. Similar to previous years, one part of the program will be centered on expanded cinema and live soundtracks, and also a slot for a q&a with guests of the festival.

Our 2024 programs will be curated by veteran experimental film aficionados Nikola Gocic (film writer and critic and visual artist), Marko Milicevic (film author and founder of the audiovisual initiative Kino Pleme), Ejla Kovačević (member of Zagreb filmlab Klubvizija and 25FPS festival collaborator) and Aleksandra Dalichow (founder of ExperimentaL CinemA and film reviewer).

Films will be awarded in the categories : Grand Prix, Special Mention, Best Soundtrack, Best Live Soundtrack, Curators Award, and Audience Award. Members of the jury will be announced on our page and website.

Films must be made between 2022-2024.

edit : we are a non-profit organisation, and our submission fee is a little support for the organisation and to keep the festival running in the lack of any state support.
we don't offer fee waivers except discounts for distributors who send us several films at once.
