The 8:23 long animation has been accepted in the competition section of the event which was created in 2003 and is the first international film festival and the only of its kind in Albania as well as the most important cinematic event in Balkans.
Bystander was previously screened at the Ninth Iran Independent Animation Celebration and the 4th Tehran Animation Festival.
TIFF aims to create in Albania, as well as in the region, a cultural center of worldwide alternative and independent cinema. Albania is a solar, enthusiastic and friendly country and besides the “strong competition” TIFF aims at the same time to be a meeting point of cultures, where people of Tirana, the guests and all those who love films will have a cinema-language-communication week.
