Free the kitsch Athens Film Fest was created in 2021 in Athens by a group of filmmakers, programmers, designers, artists and performers with the aim to combine film and fashion and create a strong independent artistic community that presents its works in an annual base.

Free the kitsch is more than a film festival: it is a celebration that brings together the most contemporary, edgy, experimental, underground aspects of film, fashion, performance and visual arts and presents a program full of screenings, installations, performances, workshops and talks.

During its first two editions, more than 110 classic and contemporary films from 28 countries were screened and more than 50 local fashion designers and models were presented.

The festival is curated by the team of filmmakers and curators Interferences.
