Silver Frame Film Festival

The Silver Frame Film Festival is a competitive international event held in Srebrenica and Bratunac, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Taking place in a region still shaped by the consequences of war, the festival focuses on films that explore themes of love, friendship, environmental awareness, and social issues, with an emphasis on human connection and constructive perspectives.

The program presents a selection of feature and short films from around the world, curated in collaboration with international film professionals and programmers from major festivals, as well as regional film academies within the student program.

Alongside the film program, the festival is closely connected to the local community. A dedicated women’s market supports local producers and artisans, creating space for visibility and exchange.

A central part of the festival is the Film Residency, where young filmmakers develop and shoot short films on location, working in direct contact with the community.

Screenings take place across multiple locations, including cultural centers in Srebrenica and Bratunac and an open-air cinema set near the Drina River.

The festival unfolds alongside the International Work Camp organized by the International Forum of Solidarity – Emmaus, which brings together volunteers from across Europe each year.

Silver Frame brings together filmmakers, audiences, and local communities through film and shared experience.
