The FICTU is a festival that focuses on short films and seeks to connect the audiovisual production of Boyacá with the current national and world cinema.

The festival has 3 competitions which are:

- Boyacá short films competition
- Colombian short films competition
- International short films competition

In addition, the FICTU has a couple of non-competitive sections:

- Colombian feature films showcase, focused on current national feature films.

- Producer retrospective, which focuses on a review of the work of a person or company that stands out for their contribution to audiovisual production in Colombia.

The FICTU has established the following prize money for the different categories, which may be increased but not reduced prior to the festival:

Competition for short films from Boyaca COP $700.000
Colombian short film competition COP $700.000
International Short Film Competition USD $100.00

*The costs caused by transactions necessary for the payment of the prizes will be assumed by the winners or, if applicable, deducted from the value of the prize.

In addition, special mentions will be awarded according to the jury's considerations.

The Fundación Festival Internacional de Cine de Tunja invites short films from Boyacá, Colombia, and the world to participate in the seventh edition of the FICTU, to be held in November 2023 in the city of Tunja.

A film can only be entered in one of the competitions or screenings. In the event of a double entry, only the first entry will be taken into account.

The films entered must not have been broadcast or be openly available to the public on digital platforms.

By registering the film for the festival, the producer/distributor authorises the use of fragments and promotional pieces of the film for the dissemination of the different activities of the FICTU.

By registering the film for the FICTU, the producer/distributor authorises the festival to publicly screen the film during the festival dates. Other screenings of the film in complementary activities of the festival, outside the dates of the main event, must be jointly coordinated and authorised by the producer/distributor.
