Virtual Film Festivals Around the Globe in June and July

By Chen Shun / 16 Jun 2020 (Tuesday)

Film festivals are usually grand events that are held annually. It is a great place to discover new films that you might not be able to see in your regular cinemas. Some of the bigger scale festivals even feature famous actors and attendees getting a chance to speak and interact with the creative teams of the films screened at the festivals.

Due to the appearance of the unprecedented worldwide healthcare situation, most countries have already banned significant scale events that require a massive gathering of people in one place. Check out which film festivals have turned to use a digital platform to continue its activity this year below!
