The Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival celebrates its twentieth edition and its audience returns. Alain Berset opens it with praise for “Gagamboy”, Erik Matti’s Filipino Spider-Man, an ice-cream seller bitten by a contaminated spider, once screened at the festival.

Behind the humour, the title the administration gave the address: “Resist and adapt to survive”. Genre cinema, like culture as a whole, is emerging from a year of closed cinemas.
