Kaunas International Film Festival (Lithuanian: Tarptautinis Kauno kino festivalis) is a film festival founded in 2007 by Visos mūzos and held in October each year in Kaunas and Vilnius, Lithuania.
[5][6] The Kaunas International Film Festival was launched in 2007 with two aims in mind: to stop developers from turning the Romuva, Lithuania's oldest cinema, into a casino, and to seek homogenization of the country's film culture.
[7][8][3] It specifically celebrates art-house film making but shows indie and internationally acclaimed movies alike, both from and outside of Lithuania.
[8] In addition to screenings, many panel discussions, masterclasses, and lectures are offered as part of the festival.
[3] Additional programmes change annually, but the four constants are Wide Angle, which explores "contemporary tendencies in the film art"; Identity; Music Moves the World; and All the Muses, which are films focusing on art.
