We celebrate the short form far beyond the competition—whether with six Focus programs dedicated to radical intimacy, or with the politically engaged Current Comments, which this year take on topics like pacifism and the exploitation of nature. At the MuseumsQuartier, we also present specially curated thematic days: Wednesday (May 28) is all about Young Cinema, Friday (May 30) is Animation Day, and Sunday (June 1) marks the start of Pride Month with a full day of explicitly queer programming. A special highlight awaits on Thursday evening: a guest program from The New York Times, accompanied by a panel discussion on the MQ Summer Stage. Discover the program here.
