13 feature films produced or co-produced in 13 different countries (Australia, Chile, Germany, India, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Poland, the Russian Federation, Sweden, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Turkey and the People's Republic of China) have been selected to participate in competition in Generation Kplus and Generation 14plus sections. These are the first films that have been announced. The full programme will be announced later.
The films selected thus far feature young individuals whose inner lives are in turmoil. The protagonists' often fragile states of mind find heightened expression in anxious spaces, dream worlds, landscapes of desire and surreal apparitions.
