The 4th edition of HIVE was a great success, welcoming over 800 guests to Flutgraben for a weekend of films, discussions, and creative exchange. With an ever-growing community of filmmakers and artists, HIVE continued to cultivate dialogue around bold storytelling and creative narratives.

This year’s theme, "Reaction," explored how individuals and societies respond to change, conflict, and uncertainty. Around this theme, HIVE presented two film selections on Saturday. Following these selections, a new midnight selection added a unique late-night cinematic experience on Saturday night.

Beyond the films, HIVE featured DJ performances on both Friday and Saturday evenings, creating a vibrant atmosphere to complement the screenings. HIVE also expanded its interactive approach with a panel discussion on film’s role in times of conflict and injustice.

We are very thankful to our inspiring community and audience and look forward to seeing you at the 5th edition of HIVE!
