The Philosophical Film Festival is a film festival on the crossroads between philosophy and film, which tries to promote the idea of film as a medium that can provoke philosophical thought and illustrate philosophical ideas. The festival screened 40 films, held around 50 events, and had 24 participants at the Second International Conference Philosophy and Film.

This year the festival organised by the Macedonian Philosophical Society was held under the motto "Everything is film, in the plural", inspired by Jean-Luc Godard for whom the festival prepared a special segment titled Focus Godard.
