Chicago Festival of Bosnian-Herzegovinian film is the premiere resource on film and video from Bosnia-Herzegovina and South Eastern Europe in the midwestern United States.
Some of the aims of our festival are:
-To show new films by Bosnia and Herzegovina’s emerging directors and revive a few classics unknown to American audiences
-To showcase the distinctiveness of Bosnian-Herzegovinian film in Chicago, a city that celebrates world cinema year-round
-To increase the visibility of the Chicago community of Bosnians and Herzegovinians, the largest in the United States
-To provide a forum for discussion of the complexities of contemporary Bosnian-Herzegovinian and South-East European identities, at home and in diasporas
Our festival is free and open to the public thanks to the generous support of our sponsors
