Not only are we very excited for our audience to see all of this year's beautiful films, we are also thrilled to announce that eleven of the film's directors will be present during WCA 2021! They will take the stage alongside their films for some exciting and informative Q&A-sessions. The Q&A's take place either live or digitally, and give the audience a special opportunity to get to know talented film makers from all over the world, to obtain a richer understanding of the broader contexts if the films, and to enrich the overall viewing experience.
