Festival Start: 03 September 2024      Festival Ende: 07 September 2024

Cartagena Negra is the noir novel festival of the city of Cartagena. These days revolve around literature and the noir genre. The festival celebrates this year its tenth edition, becoming a reference in this type of literature.
During the days of the festival there are round tables, lectures, presentations of new literary novels, reading clubs... In addition to other events related to the noir theme: monologue contest, micro-open, talks and meetings.
In this edition, the VIII Edition of the Cartagena Negra Short Film Contest will be held, which has already become a fundamental element in the official programme. In Cartagena Negra we are passionate about cinema, that's why we want to combine in the same event the literary genre with the cinematographic one.
So, in the spirit of strengthening this relationship with the world of cinema, during this edition we will be screening films of the noir genre, including the participation of filmmakers specialising in this type of story.
The Cartagena Negra Short Film Award has the clear vocation of vindicating the short film within the current cinematographic panorama, contributing to its recognition. The short film is also cinema.
