Be part of the 6th edition of Breaking Walls Dance Films.

Breaking Walls Dance Films (BWDF) is the first and only dance film festival in Egypt and the region. Since 2021 we have screened 129 films from more than twenty countries, and we programme deliberately towards work that rarely reaches Egyptian screens — recent editions have introduced audiences to films from Tunisia, Malta, Hungary and Indonesia.

The 6th edition runs 10 to 20 January 2027. Screenings take place in Cairo and, just as importantly, outside it — in Minya, Mansoura, Sohag and Qena. In several of those governorates, our screenings were the first time dance film had ever been shown publicly. Every screening is free and open to the public, and every selected film is shown at least [...]

Since its creation in 2013, the Santurtzi Film Festival has gradually evolved to become a benchmark event in the Basque Country, expanding fields of action and gaining in solidity. Always faithful to its three founding axes –the socio-cultural promotion of the municipality, the connection with the community from the artistic point of view and the promotion and professionalization of new directors– the original motto of "cinema at street level" has consolidated a distinctive personality –close, participatory cinema with a social vocation– that has served as a platform for emerging filmmakers and for cultural revitalization, social and economic of Santurtzi.

The great success of SZ has been to position itself as a platform for emerging Basque cinema: to screen and give space to [...]

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 16th 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 26th to 28rd 2026.

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, [...]
