Filmserè - Festival Internacional de Curtmetratges de La Florida (8)

映画祭の開始: 02 6月 2026      映画祭の終了: 10 6月 2026

At the beginning of June 2026, the neighborhood of La Florida will host the 8th edition of FILMSERÈ – International Short Film Festival of La Florida. This project is conceived by the students of the Cinema course at the Institut Eduard Fontserè, in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, with the guidance of teachers and professionals connected to the world of cinema and with the collaboration of local residents, social entities and associations, among others.

This is an event organized by people from the neighborhood for people from the neighborhood, where the rest of the community from L'Hospitalet, Barcelona and beyond are also invited! It is an international festival, featuring short films received from all over the world, supported by the Integral Plan Les Planes-Blocs Florida of the City Council of L'Hospitalet.

Short films of all kinds are selected, with one single criterion: that they be of the highest quality and with great entertainment value. Fiction, documentaries, animation, music videos, etc. are all accepted. Several awards are granted, some of them with cash prizes.

In addition to a student jury, made up of 4th-year secondary students who organize the festival, we have an official jury, made up of professionals from the world of cinema and the arts; a Catalan jury, made up of Catalan Language and Literature teachers; and a social jury, made up of social agents from the neighborhood.

The festival features open-air screenings as well as indoor screenings in venues across La Florida, such as the Institut Eduard Fontserè, the Tecla Sala Library, the Ana Díaz Rico Municipal Center, Primavera Avenue, and L'Hospitalet Television. We look forward to seeing you all there!
