Ambrosia — the Spring Festival of Living Cinema

What is Ambrosia? Both the nectar of the gods and a poisonous plant. Our festival is just like that — a fusion of contrasts: inspiration and aftertaste, admiration and disillusion, the sublime and the ordinary.

We celebrate cinema that breathes, argues, surprises, and dares to be different. Ambrosia is a space where fresh ideas meet experience, and audiences can taste film — sometimes sweet, sometimes sharp, sometimes burning just a little.

The spring edition of Ambrosia is a celebration of contrasts and [...]
