The 2017 Documentary Film Festival, the 19th in a row, will take place from March 15 to 22, 2017.

But regardless of this (or maybe because of this), the festival promises an insightful and promising program, rounded out by films that reflect the truth of the world as best as possible. Tickets will be available starting March 7, 2017.
March heralds the beginning of spring: a time of awakening and growth. Therefore, it is only right that this year's entry into the milder season is also marked by brain activation.

The event will take place between 13 and 17 March 2017 in the ZRC Atrium and the Slovenian Cinematheque.

The Super Bowl 2017 will be held on February 5, 2017. The Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots will clash in the 51st NFL Finals.

In addition to new obligations, 2017 also brings fresh adventures. For many, the best adventure is certainly a trip to a popular or yet unvisited place.

While traveling, it is also good to learn something new about the (local) culture. Read on for the best exhibitions of 2017, worth a trip to the other side of the world.
