Program director Bernd Buder is currently in Skopje, the capital of Macedonia. The Cinedays will show a total of 14 current first and second feature films in two competitions there. In addition, there is a gala program with great cinema from A-festivals. A conference with cinema makers from the region will revolve around the question of how to bring audiences back to the cinema after the pandemic. A supporting program, including concerts, rounds out the Cinedays.

Almost all screenings take place open air in the capital of Macedonia. There are two juries, one for the Southeast Europe program and one for the European competition. There are films from 19 producing countries.
