What would films talk about if their protagonists merely accepted the goings-on passively? If they never set out on a journey into the unknown, accepted new challenges, took part in adventures or gathered experience? Would the screens present stories of first loves, dreams, and ideals one must fight for?

The films of our anniversary programme will convince you that we are the ones holding our fates firmly in our hands, and emphasise how important it is to never relax efforts to create a better world based on solidarity. You see, Mezipatra came to life 20 years ago with the awareness that only an active approach can create a future full of tolerance. Find some inspiration for yourselves in this year's films!
