From World Premiere to Awards ceremonies, from screenings to fruitful networking, from fierce competitions driven by international jurors to bright keynote speakers, opportunities to fulfill your needs to better understand and be part of the ultimate trends in movies making are numerous.

By participating in the Views of the World Festival, all attendees will get exposure to the world of scriptwriting, feature films and writing music for scores on an international level, enjoying a forum to share knowledge, experience and talents with peers as well as an opportunity to network with international professional movers and shakers.
