Flemish Competition: Fiction

With four films in Cannes and a multitude of releases this year in the cinema, there is no denying it: film in Belgium is doing very well. But this 'golden generation' doesn't appear out of thin air, as the regular visitors of Kortfilmfestival Leuven are well aware of. Lukas Dhont, Robin Pront, Adil El Arbi, Bilal Fallah, Jonas Govaerts, Hans Herbots and Felix Van Groeningen: they were all once at Kortfilmfestival Leuven with a film. And they managed to convince the jury of their talents there. Curious as to what the next generation has to offer? Come discover it in the Flemish Competition!

Here you can find the jury of the Flemish Competition.
