MyMetaStories: the first film festival that combines film and video games! [Anzeige]

With the support of Unifrance, the organization responsible for the international promotion of French cinema and audiovisual production, MyMetaStories is an online festival dedicated to European cinema, where both short and feature films can be discovered.

From October 6 to 29, 2023, internet users around the world can watch the selected films with subtitles in six languages ​​(French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian).
