2025 Science Film Festival in Hanoi

The Science Film Festival 2025 is hosted by the Goethe-Institut in Hanoi from October 1st to December 20th, with submissions open for participants until April 10th.

The lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to impact human health, the economy, education, and social interactions. These challenges have not only resulted in physical losses but have also significantly affected mental well-being. Consequently, the 2025 Science Film Festival will highlight the crucial role of mental health in human development.
