Indie House (6)

Inicio Festival: 24 junio 2026      Fin Festival: 25 junio 2026

Welcome to Indie House! We are an IMDb-qualifying international film festival focused on independent filmmakers, providing a unique platform for your work to shine. Our festival structure is designed to prioritize filmmaker recognition, with a higher percentage of nominations compared to other festivals.

What sets us apart is our inclusive approach. We believe everyone deserves the same opportunities, regardless of when they submit their project. We do not make selections until all entries have been received, ensuring that every submission has a fair chance. Additionally, we offer an “All Categories” option, which provides a cost-effective way for filmmakers to submit their projects, and as a thank you, we offer promotional posts on our social media channels.

At Indie House, we have no production year limit. We believe in second—and even third—chances, allowing filmmakers to submit older projects alongside their most recent work. We also support filmmakers who have their projects on YouTube or other online platforms, and this does not disqualify their film from the festival.

We understand the importance of communication, and our festival team is always ready to answer any questions or concerns. You can contact us via our festival email, and we will be happy to provide prompt responses.

Join us at Indie House, where your independent film will have the opportunity to shine on an international stage, and your creativity and passion for storytelling will be celebrated. Submit your project today and become part of our inclusive and vibrant festival community!
