We are extremely sad to inform you that in light of the international situation regarding COVID-19, we will unfortunately have to postpone Arctic Film Festival (originally scheduled for April 3rd) to a later date.

We will continue to update this website and our Facebook page as we have more information about the new date.

Please know we are devoting all our resources to finding a solution that minimises the risk of infection while, at the same time, rewarding all your hard work.

We are here for any questions or comments you may have. However, we kindly ask for your patience.
