Tropheum Regale International Film Festival (2)

Inicio Festival: 01 febrero 2025      Fin Festival: 11 enero 2026

Tropheum Regale International Film Festival is an annual film festival and it gets its name from the city of Trofarello in which it is based. It is said that Trofarello in Celtic means “trophy”, probably in honour of a warrior of some success.

For many years now, we are in the film industry and understand the defies each filmmaker face when trying to realize their projects. The costs and efforts required can be prohibitive, so our festival aims to support independent filmmaking.

Each three months our jury of professionals will make a private viewing to decide the winners of each category. The judgment is based on the artistic merit, creative contribution and technical level of each entry. The results will be published on our website and on our social media profiles.
