Across The Globe Film Festival (XTG) was founded on the idea that storytelling is universal. Stories build a bridge between different cultures and people — showing just how much we have in common with one another. XTG is dedicated to filmmaking and connecting the world through entertainment. Through this process, we connect with people along the way and discover that our dreams are shared and our ambition is matched.
