Début du Festival: 19 septembre 2025      Fin du Festival: 27 septembre 2025

Equinoxio Film Festival will hold its 27th edition from September 19th to 27th. It provides a space for gathering and reflection concerning student filmmaking while allowing interaction with the aesthetic perspective of emerging talents, along with artistic, social and personal concerns of young filmmakers.

This edition of Equinoxio revolves around the thematic line “Pulsiones: Incarnating Desire”. We are looking for an emerging cinema that sheds light on the path taken by desires and the transmuted forms it assumes in the perceived world, as a result of its inescapable relationship with the other and the others. It is a film that exposes structures and patterns that, from language and aesthetics, have conditioned human longings and drives, inviting us to question the place of desire both in front of and outside the camera, exploring its origins, the normative and dissident space, the relationship with the body, morality, censorship and the role of art.

For this edition, the festival will not have competition sections, a position that does not imply leaving behind our goal of being an exhibition window for productions made in the academic field. We seek to focus on the efforts and virtues of the selected works, in order to build exhibitions that dialogue on the latent yearning to create, the pulsations and their representations and expressions through artistic processes. This curatorial freedom seeks crossings between panoramas, retrospectives, intertwining from the different sections, raising discussions in the social and aesthetic field, wanting to expand the scenarios and resonance with the other activities of the festival.
