The festival’s program was coordinated by the Tribeca festival in partnership with 21 film festivals from around the world, including Cannes, Annecy, Sundance, Rotterdam, Venice, Locarno, Karlovy Vary, San Sebastian, Macau and Tokyo.
The festival takes place in a context of the pandemic of the covid-19, which globally affected the activity of the film industry, in production, distribution, the business market and exhibition, with the closure of all cinemas and postponement of various festivals.
Although the festival is freely accessible, the organization calls on viewers to make donations to several international organizations that have dealt with the covid-19 pandemic, namely the World Health Organization and Doctors Without Borders.
