13th FESTIVERD – Venezuela
Festival Internacional de Cine y Video Verde de Venezuela opens its call for entries for the 13th edition, to be held from December 1st to 6th, 2026. Professional and student short films of the documentary, animation, experimental, and fiction genres from any region are welcome, provided they address ENVIRONMENTAL themes.

***

Our vision: to become a green film and video festival that, from Venezuela to the world, serves as an example in the creation of loving, familial bonds among all inhabitants of planet Earth.

***

Our mission: to offer an alternative perspective on environmental and ecological experiences that aim to restore familial bonds among all biotic and abiotic beings. The exhibition of green audiovisual narratives is interconnected with other streaming, media, transmedia, and social media experiences, generating a network of virtual connections that we wish to transform into familial bonds.

***

Our Philosophy: We distance ourselves from anthropocentric perspectives and excessive mandates regarding environmental protection, which ultimately become anthropocentric traps without an understanding of the biology of love. The use of new technologies, academic and artistic production are our primary means of dissemination.
