Alternative Film Video
Alternative Film Video was established in 1982 by Academic Film Center (at Students City Cultural Center) in Belgrade. It was originally conceived as a meeting point for film artists across Yugoslavia. By 1985 video was incorporated into the program. Practically every significant film artist and video artist from the former Yugoslavia participated in the festival, including Želimir Žilnik, Tomislav Gotovac, Karpo Godina and many others. In the early 2000s an international competition program was added. Since then many iconic film artists and video artists from all over the world have shown their work at AFV, including Hito Steyerl, Chto Delat, Peter Tscherkassky, Rose Lowder, and many more.
