FFG Offroad

Film Fest Gent steps outside the cinema walls! In collaboration with several partners in Ghent, the festival will screen films outdoors and in surprising locations. Moreover, the screenings will be accompanied by music, talents and food.

About the film: Binti

Binti tells the story of 12-year-old Binti, who dreams of becoming a well-known vlogger. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when she and her father, Jovial, originally from Congo, are forced to flee from the immigration police as they are staying in Belgium illegally. As a result, she meets Elias, with whom she soon becomes good friends. Together, they devise the perfect plan: her father must marry Elias's mother so that they can stay in Belgium.
