Andrei Konchalovsky, Alejandro González Iñáritu, Cohen brothers, Gus van Sant and Wim Wenders are among the directors, whose work will be shown during the fest.

The widely commented Chacun son cinema will open the fest. The film is considered a masterpiece. It was made for the jubilee of the film festival in Cannes. The film unites 33 separate pieces of cinema, mixing cultures, nationalities and talents. The pieces are dedicated to the inspiration a director receives in the cinema hall.
