Behold! The official selections for CICFF 2022!
To become a selection a film must fulfil our most important requirement — it must make us laugh. However, not all selections are screened since we only have so much screen time available at the theatre, but all selections are considered when choosing awards and honours.
Films marked with the projector will be screened at the Evening Gala
