OFFSCREEN

Brussels’ avant-garde, cult and damn fine film festival, returns to the city to mark its tenth anniversary in 2017 – from 8 to 25 March, the festival promises its usual blend of the outrageous, seductive and esoteric.

Our friends at EU Reporter are very much a part of the action for this special occasion – they have teamed up with Offscreen to offer readers the chance to win a pair of tickets for 15 of the films that will be shown over the next 17 days.

The films to choose from are below, with a handy link to each, so you know what you are letting yourself in for.

Then, all you have to do is send an email to james@eureporter.co with Offscreen 2017 in the subject line – please ensure that you provide your name, address, daytime contact number and your choice of film.

There are 60 tickets in total up for grabs, two pairs of tickets per film, and remember, it’s first-come-first-served, so best of luck!
