International Film Festival

12–16/9/2025 Šumperk

Giving space to the film professionals behind the camera.

Invisible film masters take the spotlight.

Films aren’t just about the faces on the posters. Behind every shot is a director working alongside often-overlooked talents—set designers, costume designers, gaffers, visual effects artists. While they’re usually in the background, we’re bringing them to the front.

An international mission.

From the beginning, we knew this wasn’t just going to be a local festival. We connect filmmakers and audiovisual artists from around the world—both established names and emerging voices. We bring films and guests who make the Middle Art Festival one of the standout creative events worth being part of.

Shifting the perspective.

We invite you to look behind the scenes. Look past the lens and notice the creative collaborations that bring stories to life. We want to show you that everyone involved in a film is essential to the story.

Šumperk: Little Vienna, big inspiration

This festival didn’t happen by accident. It was born in a place with soul—Šumperk, where history and creativity intertwine like your favorite film scene. The charm of Little Vienna makes the perfect backdrop for meeting the people who build our film worlds.
