¡Hola! We are SEVIFF • Sevilla Indie Film Festival, an international independent film festival in the city of Seville in Spain, and member of the IBERIFF • Iberia Indie Film Festivals, which celebrates and showcases new productions and independent artists from all over the world in Madrid (MADRIFF), Barcelona (BARCIFF), València (VALÈIFF), Seville (SEVIFF), Lisbon (LISBIFF) and Montpellier (MONTIFF), that you can also find them here, in Festhome!
SEVIFF shares the mission of their associate festivals of supporting emerging talents, encouraging artistic exploration, fostering networking, promoting cultural exchange and engaging the local community by providing a platform to present the work of independent filmmakers.
Fiction films, animation, documentary and experimental of any genre and subject are welcome!
Official Selection • Awards
In the last week of January, the jury will select the winners of each category, as well as silver award, bronze award and any honourable mentions;
All the winning films in the main categories of Supershort, Short, Short Animation, Short Documentary, Featurette, Feature Film, Feature Documentary, and Music Video will receive the SEVIFF trophy; the winners of the secondary categories, as well as the SILVER, BRONZE and HONOURABLE MENTIONS, will receive the SEVIFF-IBERIFF certificate.
