The official launch of IFFR 2025 is here! The 54th edition of IFFR begins with the crime comedy Fabula, the festival’s opening film. Michiel ten Horn’s Fabula blends crime, fantasy, folklore, and magical realism in a tale following a strung-out criminal from a family that for generations has been haunted by disaster. Determined to find out what caused it, our protagonist meets a series of colourful characters who slowly bring him closer to the explanation he’s been searching for.
Twelve years after his debut film De ontmaagding van Eva van End (IFFR 2013), Michiel ten Horn returns to IFFR with us on Thursday 30 January.
