This year's poster was designed by WYCreative.

Video Spot

The idea is simple: people getting ready to leave the house.

The music suggests a possible date. The characters do what is usually done before a romantic endeavour: they get ready, dress up, make themselves up, retouch the last details. Details are also what we get with the close-ups which focus on the gestures, creating an aura of curiosity. Who are these people? The doubt is dissipated in a moment of revelation. They are not exactly what we expected: characters from horror movies getting ready, sure, but for the Festival. The visual concept is a continuation of the spot. The final result is shown through portraits of these characters.
