The Norwegian competition programs are launched!
BIFF is an annual meeting point and gathering place for Norwegian documentary filmmakers and short filmmakers. We’re happy to announce this year’s competition programs with 8 feature documentaries, 6 short films, 8 short documentaries, 10 short films from Western Norway and 12 music videos.
We are really looking forward to screening this year’s films to our engaged audience. This year’s program contains a few world premieres, and range several current topics. Some have already had success at international festivals, but BIFF will be the first, the best - and often the only - place in Norway to experience these stories where they belong: on the big screen.
