Saint Petersburg International Experimental Film Festival (SPIEXFF)
was founded in response to the fragmentation of the experimental film community in Russia and as a platform for international collaboration between filmmakers and curators. We seek to bring together artists working with unconventional practices in order to foster exchange and support independent cinema.
SPIEXFF focuses on films that resist clear classification, existing at the intersection of fiction and documentary, theatrical and exhibition spaces, and analogue and digital practices.
We are also interested in exploring the nature of experimentation itself, asking how this cinema resists established genres, methods, and industries while simultaneously transforming them, what makes it experimental, and what place it occupies within the field of visual art.
SPIEXFF is an independent festival without state funding, organized by an international curatorial team and open to filmmakers of all backgrounds who are willing to take risks, explore, and invent their own cinematic language.
