Zagreb Film Festival (ZFF) is an annual film festival held since 2003 in Zagreb, Croatia. Focusing on promoting young and upcoming filmmaker, the festival is widely considered to be one of the most important and influential cultural events in Croatia.[1][2][3][4] It also regularly features several international programmes for the filmmaker's first or second films made.[5]
Each festival edition usually features three international competition programs (for feature films, short films, and documentary films), and one short film competition program for Croatian filmmakers. In addition, the festival often hosts non-competitive screenings, such as selections of children's films or screenings of debut works made by established film directors.
Since 2006 the festival's main award is called Golden Pram. From 2003 to 2005 the main award was called Golden Bib. The 22nd edition of the Festival will take place from 4 to 10 November 2024.[6]
