The 26th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (Hangul제26회 부천국제판타스틱영화제), an international film festival held in Bucheon, South Korea, began on 7 July 2022 with the slogan 'Stay Strange'.[1] A non-competitive international film festival with a competitive section,[2] opened with film Men by Alex Garland. This year the festival resumed its offline events after two years, which were curtailed due to COVID-19.[3]

The opening ceremony was hosted by Park Byung-eun and Han Sun-hwa,[4] with the red carpet event held during the festival after 2 years. In addition face-to-face interaction between directors, actors, producers, and other people in the film industry and the audience also took place.[5] The festival featured 268 films from 49 countries, and closed with New Normal, a Korean film by Jeong Beom-sik on July 17. 92,353 people participated in the festival in 11 days.[6][7]

You Won't Be Alone by Goran Stolevski won 'Best of Bucheon award', whereas Christian Tafdrup of Denmark won 'Best Director Choice' for film Speak No Evil.[8]
