The Poniente de Granada International Film Festival is a cultural initiative produced and organized by Libertonia Producciones, a company dedicated to the development, production, promotion, exhibition, and distribution of audiovisual content.
An international platform dedicated to the exhibition, promotion, training, and circulation of independent cinema. Its mission is to champion new cinematic voices, strengthen the independent audiovisual ecosystem, and create opportunities for connection among filmmakers, the industry, cultural institutions, and audiences.
TAGR seeks to provide visibility to films developed through creative independence and an auteur-driven vision, serving as a gateway for projects in search of new audiences and exhibition spaces.
The awards ceremony will take place during the festival’s closing ceremony on April 17, 2027, at a venue yet to be confirmed.
The festival intends to invite representatives of the selected works screened on April 10, 16, and 17, 2027, and to provide them with one night of accommodation, covered by the organizers. This arrangement is subject to hotel availability and budgetary constraints. If confirmed, the organizers will notify the invitees well in advance.
The organizers will present a commemorative trophy for each award granted.
