14th Dubai IFF 2017 Different Reality
Second year of VR program “Different Reality” introduce 11 films in the official selection.
Last year Dubai IFF made a great jump in the VR world by launching quite promising initiative “DIFFerent Reality” with the VR theatre being a part of the Festival. More about the program of 2016 you can find at our blog, but it was really nicely organised event with both screenings, discussions and great media attention.
This year 11 films are selected to the program and there we can see both new titles as well as some of the hits from Cannes, Venice, Tribeca, Moscow IFF, as well as specialised events like Screen4All 360 Film Festival etc.
