Somos un festival de cortometrajes internacional, que expone el cine espiritual desde un lenguaje universal, tratando asuntos internos del ser humano, un cine de lo invisible que captura la esencia de lo profundo y trascendente, en historias introspectivas y reflexivas; con preguntas y respuestas sobre la vida. Cada historia son frutos cosechados de adentro hacia afuera y plasman 9 valores espirituales que para nosotros son fundamentales: Amor, Alegría, Paz, Paciencia, Gentileza, Bondad, Fidelidad, Humildad y Control Propio.
Ahora en su 24º año, el Festival Internacional de Cortometrajes de 24 fps se ha ganado la reputación de presentar algunos de los programas de exposiciones más singulares y desafiantes del circuito de festivales.
La misión de 24fps es celebrar y alentar a los estudiantes y a los cineastas independientes. Los programas de proyección pública del festival están diseñados para destacar tanto al creador como al propio trabajo. Todas las películas expuestas son presentadas por un comentarista y los cineastas que asisten tienen la oportunidad de hablar con el público del festival al final de la exposición de su película.
Las películas se exhiben en la tercera parte de programas comisariados. Todas las películas se proyectan en el recinto ferial del festival, el emblemático Teatro Paramount, que figura en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos de Estados Unidos.

Since 2003 the international Festival SIGNES DE NUIT is active in Paris, Berlin, Saarbrücken, Bankok, Quito (Ecuador), Tucuman (Argentina) and now Urbino, as also with special screenings world wide. The festival in Paris actually presents some Hundrets films over the year coming from around 60 countries.
The Festival is searching films, which reflects new views, original imagery and critical approach to the crucial points of the modern human existence. It is a place for cinema that expands its own boundaries, that is astonishing, different, potentially free from the pressure of tradition, ready to give itself to the unpredictable experimentation.
The minor costs of digital production makes an independant- from comercial influences and any kind of censorship- production possible. These independant productions create an alternative, an artistic space very subtle and accessible to all, in contrast to what mass media offer.
This opposition and the preservation of the free cultural space is the goal of the International Festival Signes de Nuit, which has realized screenings and interventions in 23 different countries including Algeria, Australia, Chile, Cuba, Lebanon, Lithuania, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Peru, Russia, Tunisia, Turkey and the United States beside the screenings in main festival in Paris.
FARO 1540 - La Asociación para la Defensa y la Promoción del Patrimonio Ambiental y Cultural de Faro, tras el éxito de las últimas ediciones de FARCUME - Festival Internacional de Cortometrajes de Faro, organiza la 11ª edición de este Festival que se celebrará en la ciudad de Faro del 26 al 28 de septiembre de 2025.
Esta 15ª edición de FARCUME pretende exhibir y promover obras de la sección de cortometrajes de hasta 18 minutos de duración, divididas en tres categorías: Animación, Documental y Ficción.
En este festival, todos los ciudadanos nacionales y extranjeros pueden participar, individualmente o en grupos, simplemente cumpliendo con lo estipulado en el reglamento, llenando un formulario de inscripción y enviando sus obras a la organización antes del 11 de julio de 2025, sujeto a preselección.
El objetivo principal de este Festival sigue siendo el mismo: dar a conocer y dar a conocer nuevos talentos, así como promover de cerca del público los excelentes trabajos que se realizan en este ámbito, pero que no siempre cuentan con la promoción deseada y merecida.
En otras palabras, FARCUME, en un ambiente informal, de buen humor y distendido, pretende premiar y reconocer la dedicación, el compromiso, la creatividad y el mérito de los directores, actores y equipos técnicos que, con medios modestos, pueden desarrollar obras de gran calidad.
Dados los principios y objetivos de «FARO 1540», que incluso tiene el estatus de ONG (Organización Ambiental No Gubernamental), el Festival seguirá teniendo una gran preocupación y sensibilidad ambiental, alertando a los participantes para que no presenten cortometrajes que denuncien o fomenten la falta de respeto por el medio ambiente, la desigualdad de los derechos humanos o el abuso de los animales. Se desarrollará aún más un Plan de Gestión Ambiental específicamente «diseñado» para este evento a fin de garantizar la optimización de los recursos necesarios para la promoción y realización del evento y la gestión de los residuos generados.
Mission:
A judged film festival described as "Sundance with Fangs" by Newsday Long Island. We provide a venue for showcasing your films within a celebratory & respectful environment, where fans can enjoy the independent films entered by those of you who passionately craft your Strange-ifical, Weird-ifical, Horror-ifical, Sci-fi-tastical, Fantastical and Macabre-licious films. The opportunity to win awards, increase film visibility via press and possibly obtain distribution is always part of the equation with the Macabre Faire Film Festival.
For starters the word "Macabre" is pronounced: Ma-Cob. The "re" is hardly ever heard. What does it mean?
Although it is an adjective meaning: disturbing and horrifying because of involvement with or depiction of death and injury, WE ARE NOT SOLELY A HORROR FILM FESTIVAL but instead a whole lot more than that. We usually approach the Macabre Faire Film Festival with a lighter touch in the sense that, not all of the films screened are horror and instead many may simply be considered a bit on the darker side. Of course, we will add some horror to this festival but, when we hear the word "Macabre" we remember those hauntingly fascinating films that starred legendary greats such as:
Vincent Price & Peter Cushing or those fantastic Gothic horrors like the "Hammer" films. These names in themselves represent what "macabre" means to us. What we are saying is that the word "Macabre" DOES NOT mean we only accept HORROR films but instead that we welcome those films that can tap into our fears through what you don't see or hear. A dark drama, mystery, suspense, thriller or dark comedy can do a lovely job making us feel uncomfortable in the dark. So folks, this is what many of the films selected for the Macabre Faire Film Festival offer. A buffet for any pallet. About the only thing we may have to say "No Thanks" to would be a romantic comedy/drama... unless, there's a monster under the bed during love making or other dark element.
All submitted films are pre-screened by select judges that includes Eileen Dietz, our Festival Ambassador, of the original "The Exorcist" film to ensure the films have followed guidelines and are an overall fit for the festival. Then the films are passed on to another set of judges consisting of more filmmakers, film critics, genre film fans and or seasoned actors to choose the Official Selections. Once these selections have been identified there is an additional judging process in collaboration with the original pre-screening judges to identify the different category nominees. Once you have been notified we insist on having the film festival entry form filled out and submitted back to the festival via email or snail mail within 4 weeks of acceptance. This form can be found on our website or it has been emailed to you as an attachment with your initial welcoming email.
URGENT NOTE: IF THERE IS NO CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE FESTIVAL AND INDIVIDUAL WHO SUBMITTED THE ACCEPTED FILM WITHIN 4 WEEKS FROM INITIAL ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION, WHICH ALL FILMMAKERS RECEIVE FROM FESTHOME BY DEADLINE DATE, YOUR FILM WILL NO LONGER BE AN OFFICIAL SELECTION IN THE MACABRE FAIRE FILM FESTIVAL. So we urge everyone to check their spam folders at all times and or ensure to make contact with the festival within 4 weeks of the acceptance notification. Failure to do so will exclude your film from the festival. Please take the time to ACTUALLY READ all the pages of the submission form which contains mailing address information (if needed) and other very important details which includes getting your discs or film posters sent to the festival in a timely fashion. This does not mean mailing materials in 2 weeks before the event as they will not be accepted.
Moving on...
