What is considered a “European Film”?
According to the Crossing Europe Festival regulations, a film is considered "European" if it was (co-)produced in one of the countries of the continent. In addition, the film should tell stories from, related to or about Europe.

This program section presents recent films and videos from 2023/34 and offers Upper Austrian filmmakers an international platform for the presentation of their work. Films of all genres, formats and lengths are welcome, including music videos.

Filmmakers are invited to submit their most recent productions, if they are either born in, currently living, working or studying in Upper Austria, as well as if they’ve received financing from Upper Austria for the submitted film, were (co-)produced by a production company based in Upper Austria or if the film has a clear thematic reference to Upper Austria.
