BIFFF 2020
For the first time in its nearly 40-year-old history, the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival is cancelled :( And this due to Corona virus. Nevertheless, the good people of the festival worked for almost a full year to present a full program of films. This list is to emphasize their great work. So sad that it can't take place ... Personally, I haven't missed a single edition since 2003 :(
