We are excited to announce that the theme for this year’s The Hague Film Festival is “Rebels & Royals.”

This theme was inspired by the unique character of The Hague, a city that embodies both regal sophistication and a rebellious spirit. The Hague, known for its royal heritage and the presence of the Dutch monarchy, also has a rich history of social activism and progressive movements. By choosing “Rebels & Royals” as our theme, we invite audiences and filmmakers to explore and express their identities through their stories and experiences. Whether you see yourself as a rebel challenging the status quo or a royal upholding tradition, this theme encourages a dynamic and diverse range of narratives that reflect the multifaceted nature of our city. Join us in celebrating the convergence of tradition and innovation at this year’s festival.
