Logo of Cartagena de Indias International Film Festival - FICCI

The Cartagena de Indias International Film Festival (FICCI) is a cinematographic event with a social and cultural vision and, by choice, free and open to all. Each year, FICCI interprets the particular circumstances of Colombia, Ibero-America, and the world, offering a world-class edition guided by the preservation of freedom and the expansion of cultural dialogue through films, industry gatherings, and academic events that are relevant, human, subtle, and in constant conversation with its audience and cultural stakeholders. The festival seeks to be a space for encounter and exchange, a platform to elevate human awareness, strengthen democracy, and contribute to the creation of free, inclusive, and conscious societies.

ASSERTING WOMEN'S RIGHTS is a project that emerged from the Festival de Málaga, in collaboration with documentary filmmaker Mabel Lozano and the Equal Opportunities Department of the Malaga City Council, as a tool for protest and advocacy. This section was created with the aim of exploring and addressing issues that raise social awareness about women's rights each year.

Launched in 2008, this section of the Festival de Málaga is now in its 19th edition. The project has a dual purpose: to shed light on the injustices that women continue to face in the 21st century simply because they are women, and to promote and support films created by women.

Through Asserting Women's Rights, we have brought attention to the challenges women face in different parts of the world. Even today, [...]

Utsav – Celebration or Festival

We have started this LGBTQ+ & Independent Film Festival for cinema lovers. This film festival will be a celebration of creativity and ideas. After a successful completion of the first edition of the festival, we are now ready for the second edition.

LGBTQ+ cinema globally as well as in India has become an important part of the film industry. OTT platforms have increased the reach of these films to a larger audience. Of course, these avenues are mostly for mainstream cinema and filmmakers. There are a lot of independent film makers who also have interesting stories to present. We hope that this festival will be a platform for these independent film makers and their wonderful stories.

Each film has various components – story, script, [...]

Students, filmmakers, and cinema lovers,

It is with great excitement that I welcome you to the fifteenth edition of the LANTERNA International University Film Festival.

This is no ordinary edition: we’re celebrating fifteen years of stories, voices, and narratives that have crossed our lives and left a mark.

In this very special edition, we want to look back with gratitude and look forward with boldness. Fifteen years of university cinema is not just a journey—it’s a statement of purpose. Of who we were, who we are, and what we aspire to tell.

Cinema is not just what we see:
It’s what we feel without knowing how to explain it.
It’s what connects us without saying a word.
It’s what, from the university, invites us to see the world differently.

I invite you to be part of [...]

The One Shot Terrassa City of Film is a film festival that takes back the old Sequence Shot Contest organised in Terrassa between 2004 and 2012. It came last year again, and we're following the success. So this is the 11th Edition of the festival.

The particularity of this festival is that ONLY ACCEPTS ONE SHOT FILMS. What does it mean? As is well known, is about telling a story - at least 3 minutes long - in just a single shot, that is: no cutting or image editing.

In 2017, Terrassa was selected as a "Creative City of UNESCO in Film", a recognition that only 17 cities in the world have. This leads to recover a past that it is what brought us this present.

The festival will take place during the week from November 27th to 29rd 2025.
