Enjoy and appreciate opportunities to see Europe like this Film Festival or wait for next year! You don't need the synopses for an adventure but if you're looking for them, just go here. Plus, they might just jumble up the schedule. I just watched some of the films last year and they took me to different places and through different time periods.
