About

FIDBA aims to be a meeting place for authors who developed innovative ways of perception of reality and new ways of expressing it and think it through film, but also the arts, new narratives and new media formats ranging from photography to installations, from the documentary theater to transmedia storytelling, not to mention the intersections between reality and fiction.
