LUXFILMLAB
Every first Wednesday of the month, the LuxFilmLab - a joint initiative of the Luxembourg City Film Festival and Kinepolis - spotlights a work chosen in consultation with the LuxFilmFest team and the Kinepolis programming team.
One of the Festival's representatives will introduce this unique session, with the ambition to support and accompany works whose temporality does not allow them to be presented within the strict framework of the Festival, but whose qualities would have made them likely to be selected.
