Logo of Curtas Vila do Conde – International Film Festival

Curtas Vila do Conde – International Film Festival is one of the most prestigious film festivals in Portugal, reaching its 35th edition in 2027.

The festival will be held from 9th to 18th July 2027 and its main objective is the promotion of audiovisual and film production, selected according to quality criteria, at an event which focuses not only on the discovery of new films and directors, but also on the legacy of cinema.

Fiction, animation, documentary, and experimental films no longer than 60 minutes (unless otherwise noted), produced in 2026 or 2027 are eligible for the various competitions.

Out-of-competition programmes will highlight not only a selection of worldwide contemporary short films but also the relations between shorts and features, music and film, art and cinema.

GUARRA, the First Buenos Aires International Kinky Film Festival has an unmistakable purpose: to give visibility and celebrate a culture that has historically been marginalized and stigmatized.

Our mission is to challenge and dismantle the prejudices that often surround kinky and BDSM practices by presenting authentic, diverse stories that capture the multiple dimensions of this culture. Each film selected for the festival will provide a window into the realities and
experiences of people within the community, offering perspectives that are rarely represented in mainstream cinema.

Corti a Corte was born from a question: what can truly engage an audience increasingly accustomed to streaming platforms and small-screen viewing?

Our answer is a festival conceived as a cinematic salon, bringing the collective experience of cinema back to the centre.

After each short film is screened on the big screen, the audience meets filmmakers and film professionals, taking part in a direct conversation about the works, their cinematic language and the themes they explore.

Corti a Corte is a non-competitive event.

It is a space for encounter and exchange, where short films become the starting point for sharing ideas, experiences and new perspectives.
