Family First?
This year at Film Fest Ghent, is family truly everything? With the tag Family First, we delve into stories about families that connect, suffocate, clash, or break. From distant parents to generations reinventing their identities: this selection shows how our roots shape us—and how we're sometimes forced to tear them apart.
The films in this section reveal how family can be both a foundation and a dividing line, whether it's about passing on trauma, traditions, or love.
Film Fest Gent gladly helps you select your favourite films from our programme. Via Sections & Tags you can find out which films suit you best. Via the tag Belgian Cinema Today you will find a selection of Belgian films that prove that Belgium is a film country in heart and soul. Discover the films included in this tag here.
