The festival screened two distinct programs with 35 films total, from 18 countries, culled from over 500 submissions from over 60 countries.

With 26 films making their US premieres, we screened a mix of 15 live-action and 20 animated films.

After making its Central Mass. debut in Worcester, the festival returned to Providence to close out Thanksgiving weekend.
