Festival hrvatskog filma
Emerging or unverified festival
The Festival hrvatskog filma in Split is most likely referring to the Split Film Festival, the city’s long-running international festival of new film and media. Founded in 1996, it is notable as Croatia’s oldest international film/media festival and for presenting Croatian premieres of recent world cinema, especially works that have already appeared at major festivals such as Rotterdam, Berlinale, and Cannes.[1][5][11] The festival is known for its focus on creative, personal, experimental, radical, and subversive films and audiovisual works outside the mainstream, which gives it a distinctive place in both the Croatian and international festival circuit.[1][5][11]
