Imagine Film Festival
Imagine Film Festival will return in the fall of 2023. With a festival period from the end of October to the beginning of November, the festival fits in better with the international calendar of 'fantastic films'. Hence, the organization expects to be able to offer a more robust and more up-to-date program in the autumn. With two new festival locations in Amsterdam, LAB111 and De Filmhallen, the festival could expand from two to four theaters in 2022. PLEASE NOTE: Listed dates for 2023 are subject to change.

Things to Come Nature Strikes Back
With the annually recurring science program Things to Come, the society of today and the future is looked at from the imagination. During this edition of the festival, the central theme is: Nature Strikes Back! In this program (climate) scientists, futurologists and film-makers compare the disaster scenarios from eco-horror and cli-fi (climate fiction) with the frighteningly changing climate in our reality. It's not just about how realistic those scenarios actually are: science fiction lends itself to using the imagination and sketching alternative future scenarios. For this programme, Imagine collaborates with, among others, the magazine New Scientist and SPUI 25.
Imagine Expanded: Film, Games and VR
Imagine Expanded fuses fantastic stories and worlds across platforms, film, games and VR. Level Up is a showcase with publicly playable demos of the latest independently produced Dutch and Flemish games. In addition to the makers, various (inter)national guests will be present. This year we will also present the Imagine VR award for the best VR experience from the international competition.
