The 48th edition of the International Film Festival of Rotterdam was IFFR director Bero Beyer’s fourth iteration. The four program groupings that he instigated in his inaugural year remain in place with special themes in the Perspectives series, discovery in Bright Futures, high profile screenings in Voices and the innovation of Deep Focus addressing a cinephile audience. This quadrant is useful in unpacking a cluttered and manifold program, with the IFFR app enabling scheduling decisions and changes to be made with agility. There was a slight attendance downturn from over 330,000 in 2018 to 327,000 this year. Locals remained catered for with homegrown films, Dutch language screenings, “best of” marathons and special audience days.Publication classification
