Patmos is one of the northernmost islands in the Dodecanese complex of the Aegean Sea, with a strong tradition of cultural activities. It is perhaps best known today as the location the disciple John received the visions found in the Book of Revelation of the New Testament and where the book was written.

The 1st Patmos Cinema Festival marks the reinvention of the local film festival under a community driven approach, in these difficult post coronavirus times.

Patmos Cinema Festival (or PCF) will be a platform for strong stories and independent voices to come together.

There will be loose thematic categories:

* Gaia. A movie about our home
‡ Sea and Cinema. Sea as an obstacle, as a border, as a road or a bridge.
§ Topography of Emotions.
* Human Rights.

In general we will accept any film genre as long as it evolves around a strong narrative.

PCF films will be screened in various venues around the island. Main venue is the open air cinema at the Patmion Cultural Centre.

PCF activities (including the workshops) will take place throughout the year on the island.

PCF is the officially supported film festival by the municipality of Patmos.

The festival will have a competition section. The jury will consist of of experienced and renowned artists (the list will be announced shortly).

Please bear in mind that the website is under construction. It will be fully functional by the end of July.

All safety measures will be held. In case of a corona-virus outbreak the dates will be postponed accordingly.

Awards and prizes will soon be announced.
