The Terrícola Audiovisual Festival arises with the purpose of promoting audiovisual production from the country and neighboring countries, from Patagonia, and from the Andean Comarca in particular, creating a meeting space for filmmakers, the general public, locals, and tourists. Faced with the scarce film infrastructure in the region, the festival seeks to guarantee equitable access to quality productions, promote the local audiovisual industry, and strengthen the regional cultural identity.
In addition to screenings, the festival offers open talks and workshops on agroecology, ancestral knowledge, fire prevention, pollution, and regional economy, with the objective of integrating local and territorial knowledge.
