On Wednesday, November 8, the festive closing of the 24th Mezipatra queer film festival took place, featuring a total of 69 films. Awards for the best films were presented during the ceremony at Lucerna cinema.
Saturday and Sunday were not only about movies but also our accompanying program.

One of the key components of the festival is the Industry Program, which focuses on various aspects of the film industry, allowing professionals to share their experiences and knowledge. Here's an overview of the lectures and discussions that will take place on November 4th-5th in Prague.
