| + | The [[Kino Otok - Isola Cinema Festival]] is a specialised, non-competitive festival that focuses on presenting contemporary, geographically and aesthetically very heterogeneous film production. It was launched in [[Established::2004]] in the small coastal town of Izola, and although it remains a relatively small festival, its specific film programme (which usually brings several hard-to-see films and many well-known international guests) attracts a broad national and international interest. | ||

A very peculiar section is the Silvan Cinema School (or Silvan's Bay). Defined as "a space, not a school, a space for experiencing and narrating films, films and life", it is dedicated to [[Silvan Furlan]] (1953–2005), the godfather of the festival and founder of the [[Slovenian Cinematheque]].

A presentation of the Kino Otok - Isola Cinema Festival at the Festival Market at the 9th Jewish Film Festival – Festival of Tolerance
