Vilnius International Film Festival KINO PAVASARIS

Vilnius International Film Festival (Vilnius IFF) Kino Pavasaris is the biggest and most important cinema event in Lithuania. Over more than 20 years, the festival has become a highly-attended cultural phenomenon. The 2018 edition of the festival was visited by 116,551 viewers – 2,300 more than last year. Our carefully curated programme has earned the festival recognition from viewers and industry professionals alike. This year, Vilnius IFF will take place in 19 cities over two weeks – more than ever before.

Now in its 24th year, the festival’s visual identity - the rippling water alludes to the constant unrest in people’s busy routines. “Don’t rush. Imagine” advises this year’s Kino Pavasaris, once again offering quality cinema that’s worthy of your time and refreshed mind. Only when the mind settles can one’s imagination begin to stir. The programme again will focus on a variety of international auteur cinema and events that combine audience education with the film industry, provide the opportunity to share experience as well as acquire new knowledge.
