There is always a story behind a logo and this is about Marius, a two-year-old giraffe who sadly lost its life in 2014. Marius was a part of the big chain of animals that are part of the Zoo facility.

​

As a festival and part of the HF network, we stand firm with animal rights and we will always strive to raise awareness and open a dialogue about equality in all forms. We believe that art and filmmaking act as the vanguard in the struggle against oppression and give voice to and visibility to the lives of the voiceless and the invisible.

​

On a positive note, we like to think of Marius as a cinephile who would have really loves to attend our festival! We're eager to meet you all in person!
