International Kansk Video Festival (Russia/Siberia) is not a conventional
film festival. It is an experiment in time and space. The place
. the
small Siberian city of Kansk, was found on the Internet by chance and
selected as its name correlates with the Cannes Film Festival, Kansk in
the Russian language is pronounced the same as Cannes. I grew as an
artistic joke
.Siberia having it’s own ‘Festival de Cannes’.
We remind 7 main differences of the International Kansk Video Festival:

Kansk Video Festival provides a social platform for alternative and
innovative films, its producing and promoting. Those works are beyond the
bounds of mainstream in cinematography, as well in contemporary art.

Kansk Video Festival is international competition of films, videos and
video-art, also of adjoining genres in visual art, on the border between
cinema and contemporary art.

Kansk Video Festival is a neutral territory in which independent views,
even radical ones, but rethinked by actual culture, are encouraged.

Kansk Video Festival is a provider of new names, genres, styles, fresh
ideas for all-absorbing reservoir of film industry and television . The
festival of art discoveries will not stop in pioneer research of our
visual future.

Kansk Video Festival is the first Eurasian film and video forum opened for
everybody freethinking, little known and celebrated artists and film
directors.

Kansk Video Festival is education laboratory that develops its auditory by
screening actual art, films and videos out of cultural capitals and
traditional for many film festivals "palm-and-beach" places.

Kansk Video Festival is art-territory and anti-Hollywood.
