The story behind this year's festival campaign

Since 2022, IDFA has invited artists from its community to develop the festival's visual campaign, offering their personal interpretation of IDFA and exploring the relationship between art, documentary and the world around us. For the 2026 edition, this artistic dialogue continues with director Mehrdad Oskouei and co-director Soraya Akhlaghi of A Fox Under a Pink Moon, winner of the IDFA Award for Best Film in the International Competition of 2025.
