The Visions and Vanguard programs are often closely associated, but here's the difference:

films in the Visions program try to challenge the audio-visual form of cinema (by altering the process of film-making, or playing with the art of storytelling) — whereas Vanguard films present challenging content (intended to be bold, provocative, and often defying conventions).

See you at the fest!
