Year 3 is officially in the books 🫶

We were inspired by everyone who showed up and made this weekend feel so special.

Thank you to the filmmakers for trusting us with your work and for traveling from near and far to be a part of the festival weekend.

We are very grateful to the teams at and for hosting our screenings, and to our friends at and for giving us space to celebrate together. To our jurors, moderators, filmmakers, volunteers, and the whole ITHEX community, we truly couldn’t do this without you!
