Il 14° FICCI-ON - Ciudad Rodrigo International Film Festival mira a promuovere film educativi, sociali e spirituali realizzati in tutto il mondo.
Il tema del festival sarà quindi educativo, sociale e basato sui valori, compresi tutti quei film che promuovono lo sviluppo infantile in tutti i suoi aspetti.
Film basati sui valori che trattano il tema dei diritti umani e del dialogo interculturale. Ci sarà anche spazio per film con temi etnografici, di denuncia sociale o di impegno per lo sviluppo della cultura della Pace. Per quanto riguarda i temi spirituali, questa è una sezione molto ampia in cui saranno inclusi film religiosi e/o spirituali, indipendentemente dalla confessione e dal credo del film e dei suoi autori.

Some quotes:
"Dances with Film is an incredible film festival filled with a ton of hot, new talent. It's what Sundance should be and SXSW is – but it’s in our own backyard! They put on top notch industry panels and events which sync sponsors together with the filmmakers as well as other VIPs. Their events are well attended and are extremely well organized. It's a great platform for a sponsor to promote their own projects and enhance their profile in the Hollywood and Indie film community while picking up material and making new connections."
- Chris Charalambous, Head of Acquisitions, Freestyle Media
"Dances with Film is a great film festival. They treat their supporters and sponsors incredibly well, put on fantastic industry events and is an enormous wealth of new talent. Gersh has signed 3 new clients since becoming involved with DWF. We couldn't recommend it more highly."
- Frank Wuliger, Partner The Gersh Agency
Panels:
As you can see, DWF provides great exposure to the decision makers of the film industry. In fact past year's panels and 'conversations with' series rocked it with Producer, Stephanie Allain (DEAR WHITE PEOPLE, HUSTLE AND FLOW); Casting Director, David Rubin (TRUMBO, GRAVITY); EVP, Worldwide Distribution, Paramount Pictures, Syrinthia Studier; Packaging Agent, Gersh Agency, Gergen Crochet; SVP, Acquisitions and Co-Productions, Miramax, Rosanne Kortenberg; EVP, Theatrical Distribution, CBS Films, Steven Friedlander... just to name a few. Every year brings out industry stars, the caliber of which - you will rarely find at other fests.
Dances With Pilots!
In addition to narrative and documentary features and shorts (not to mention music videos!), DWF is thrilled to bring back the 4th installment of Dances With Pilots! as we present TV and Webisodes as a sidebar to the big fest.
Dances With Kidz!
We are pleased to present year 6 of Dances With Kidz! This program consists of films created for kids and most importantly... created BY kids. There is a pro section along with the kids section (18 and below).
2 Minute Short Film Challenge
And on the creative side, DWF also produces up to ten short films during the week of the festival. The 2 Minute Short Film Challenge has become an exciting favorite program at the festival. Utilizing the latest digital technology and pure filmmaking ingenuity, submitted scripts are shot, edited and screened in front of evening competition films during the festival.
Academy® Qualification:
We also qualify a slate of shorts for Academy Award® consideration through our friends at Laemmle Theatres and Double Exposure in Los Angeles. Short films that premiere with us actually have a higher possibility of being Academy® qualified than most any other short film competition in the country.
The Family:
Finally, the community of Dances With Films that has evolved since 1998 is a strong and loyal one. DWF offers the opportunity for filmmakers to strengthen and expand connections that will endure for years to come.

L'Encuentro Hispanoamericano de Cine y Video Documental Independiente: Contra el Silencio Todas las Voces è uno spazio per viaggiare attraverso varie realtà ed estetiche del Messico e dell'America Latina.
Contra el Silencio ha la sua prima edizione nel 2000, quando praticamente gli unici festival cinematografici esistenti in Messico erano Guadalajara (1986) e Guanajuato (1998), e in generale, in America Latina la situazione non era molto diversa, c'erano pochissimi spazi che diffondevano e davano riconoscimento al documentario sociale.
Da questo stesso spirito e impegno a promuovere e sostenere la creazione di documentari arriviamo piacevolmente alla dodicesima edizione che si terrà dal 4 al 12 novembre 2022. In cui avremo proiezioni delle sezioni competitive, delle funzioni speciali, nonché delle attività accademiche e di formazione che promuovono la critica e la riflessione.

KloosterKino is the place to be for animated shorts in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Three times a year we show the best animated shorts from all over the world in a friendly setting. The screenings take place in a historic cloister, which dates back to 1909, and are not subject to admission.
KloosterKino shows work by young filmmakers, but also pays attention to classic animated film. Throughout the year we also work with other festivals and cultural organizations to arrange screenings of animated shorts.
But why animated shorts? Well, first of all, because we love them! But also because too few animated shorts are shown theatrically in the Netherlands. KloosterKino wants to show animation in all its diversity: from stop-motion to CGI, from narrative to abstract, homegrown and from far away. In doing so, we hope to aid in the diffusion of the artistic animated short.
We intend to be an alternative to the larger animation festivals by offering screenings which are both accessible and challenging. We stand for high quality animated film in welcoming surroundings. Our target audience is not just the animation aficionado, but also those who normally don’t watch animation, but are open to a surprising and stimulating program of films.
KloosterKino is a nonprofit foundation, that depends on volunteers and gifts.
