Take what you need!


Today, on 5 November, The jury of the International Competition section of the 55th Thessaloniki International Film Festival held a press conference.

Today also were a lot of people in the port and big lines infront of the cinemas. The visitors are not only greek speakers. There are a lot of foreign spectators.
„The festival is an oppurtunity to give us something, what we can not get enough from home.”- belives Miroljub Vuckovic.
Some members of the jury, were also judged before in other film festivals.
