FFG Offroad
Film Fest Gent steps outside the cinema walls! In collaboration with several partners in Ghent, the festival will screen films outdoors and at surprising locations. Moreover, the screenings will be accompanied by music, workshops and talks.
FFG Offroad presents three open-air screenings in Ghent in May, selected and organized by the members of Dzjambo café, vzw Titannick, Jeugdhuis Nieuw Gent and Compagnie Cordial. Film Fest Gent Offroad is more than just film: movie lovers can look forward to all kinds of extras before the screenings. Our full program will be announced mid March, but be sure to save the dates in your calendar!

With Film Fest Gent Offroad, our aim is to screen films for and with people from Ghent. The partnerships were not formed by chance. Vzw Jong and Gentertainment have been focusing on talent development for quite some time. Many young people aspire to pursue acting, and we aim to leverage this enthusiasm. CVO Gent expressed keen interest in incorporating film into their NT2 classes, not only as an additional exercise but also to foster stronger connections between students, teachers, and other Ghent residents. Through our collaboration with JH Nieuw Gent, we can build upon previous experiences such as the open-air screenings of Cool Abdoul (2022) and Patser (2020). Additionally, a unique exchange project with Brazilian youngsters this spring has provided an intriguing perspective.
