Make your plans now to stream from the 2022 Cinequest, Silicon Valley’s own major film festival. This year’s fest will again be online as Cinejoy, scheduled for April 1 through April 17. Cinequest is a significant showcase for independent film, documentaries and world cinema., and this year presents 132 Films and Television from 53 countries. The 2022 program includes features from Italy, Spain, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Iceland, Serbia, the UK, Canada, Uruguay, Japan, Vietnam, South Korea, Jordan and Australia.

82 of the movies are world or US premieres – be in the FIRST AUDIENCE to see these films. You can stream the vast majority of the premiering films for the cost of an espresso drink. Here’s where you can peruse the program and buy your pass/tickets.

I’ve already screened almost ten Cinejoy films, and I’ll be posing my recommendations by the end of this week.

This is the twelfth year that I’ve covered Cinequest, and, as usual, I’ll be covering Cinequest rigorously with features and movie recommendations. Bookmark my CINEQUEST 2022 page, with links to all my coverage (links on the individual movies will start to go live on Thursday, March 31st). Follow me on Twitter for the latest.
