In contrast to most other festivals, which have only one Head of Programming, Kosmorama has hired as many as four recognised film experts to curate the festival’s main programme. Built around a theme of their own choosing, each of the four film curators has put together an international programme of ten films. In addition, the curators must explain the rationale behind their choices, and give the audience a good reason to go and see precisely “their” films.
Kosmorama’s main competition programme consists of twelve international films, all hand-picked by the festival’s programme council.
