A brief case study about our rebranding:
GUIDING LIGHTS
The 'Northern Lights' film festival is a personal guiding star that has been helping to navigate the world of cinema and culture for 10 years straight, highlighting the brightest films, discovering authentic voices, and showcasing unexpected viewpoints.

All this time, we have been giving light to others. Now it's time to give it to ourselves.

We are celebrating a decade of our work by refreshing the brand and introducing an identity that symbolizes our big idea and the values that have driven us through all of these years.
LOGO
Cleanliness, simplicity, minimalism—and nothing extra that could lead you astray, only the clear coordinates of the Northern Lights, following which, like following a compass, everyone will find their place in the world of cinema and trends.

MINIMALISM
Less noise, more meaning. We unсluttered and cleared the visual and communication spaces of the brand to focus more clearly on what is important and see the main things in the boundless sky of modern cinema. On which, we believe, the constellation of Belarus also glistens.
SHINING
Shining and northern lights have always been the main symbol of our festival. But even the most solid and bright things eventually require us to look at them from a different angle. Just as the keogram helps you see the intensity of the northern lights from the ground, the Northern Lights film festival offers an opportunity to view hidden masterpieces and discover supernovas in cinema.

MORE THAN EVER, BELARUSIAN CINEMA NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT
The Northern Lights Film Festival has remained one of the few film festivals that, despite the pandemic and repression, has not missed a single year and continues to run in the format of an international review, with a carefully curated program, retrospectives, its own manifesto, discussions, and guest stars.

We don't stop day after day, year after year—for nine years now. Because if we stop, it will be challenging to get back into the regular rhythm and impossible to start over from scratch.
We need your support to show incredible films from the Baltics and Scandinavia every year. To introduce Belarusians to Ukrainian cinema as part of the Ukraine Mon Amour program. To invite a top-notch international jury to watch the Belarusian competition, thereby expanding awareness of the very fact of the existence of Belarusian cinema.

We need your support to talk about Belarusian people through cinema, through the universe of the film festival and the networking opportunities it provides. To bring Belarus closer to bright changes, to the values of freedom and equality, and to convey its story through the language of cinema and through the lips of renowned foreign directors whose films we feature on Northern Lights.
