The FEATURES programme offers a diverse array of genres, styles, and distinct flavours, presenting a veritable feast for the senses. From experimental and art-house works to other captivating genres, there's something to entice every palate.

CONNECTION BETWEEN AUDIENCE AND CREATIVE IS KEY, after all, a film is not realised until it is connected with its audience. This is the last and first vital step in a creative's journey.

As with all Lift-Off screenings, the audience plays a vital role; festival participants will be asked to vote for their favourite projects.
