Crossing Europe

Held April 12 to 17, 2011, CROSSING EUROPE offers the international and the local cinema audience a program with approximately 130 outstanding, hand-picked films, documentaries and short films. With the program selection festival director Christine Dollhofer seeks to do justice to the diversity of European cinema (and consequently to that of the continent of Europe). The Linz festival audience has an opportunity to see high-quality European productions and cinematic highlights of the past festival season (from A-festivals like the Berlinale, Cannes and Venice) suitably presented on the screen.

Central program tracks like the European Panorama and the Competition European Cinema with Euro 10,000 in prize money, Tributes and Specials (including films focusing on Working Worlds, architecture and film (in cooperation with AFO) or from the realm of music and youth culture) have been permanent features of the program since the beginning of the festival. The same is true of the Night Sight, the OK Artist in Residence program and the exhibitions taking place at the OK Festival Center, and the daily Nightline with musical live acts along with a selection of current Austrian film work.

The CROSSING EUROPE Film Festival Linz is an attractive and communicative platform for young filmmakers, cineastes and representatives of the film industry, a festival of manageable size, which centers on experiencing film in a relaxed atmosphere.
