Founded in 2023 in Saint-Petersburg (Russia), Otherworldly Film Festival is an independent international festival of experimental cinema and a lab for artists working with the moving image. The festival explores liminality, spectrality, the transitional states of the image, and all possible interpretations of the otherworldly. Each year the curators choose a new overarching theme along with individual vectors of inquiry. This year the festival presented 60 films from 36 countries.
