Official Poster of the 37th BISFF
The official poster of BISFF was designed by illustrater Eomji. The title of the work is, “The night is wriggle”. As you can see from the title, various dynamic elements are placed as static pictures, so we can imagine the various stories that link to this year's slogan "Pushing Boundaries of Cinema".
