International Festival

Short film festival

If there is something we all have in common, it is movement. As Akram Khan put it: “Movement is the essential ingredient of how the world continues, or survives.”

When our body’s movement fuses with the cinematographical movement, one of the most original film genres is born: dance film. While words can mislead, the body language does not lie.

Choreoscope is the International Dance Film Festival of Barcelona. A unique event dedicated not only to those passionate about dance, but also to those who enjoy quality cinema. Born in 2013, with three full-house celebrated events, our goal is to promote the strong ties with art in general and with film and dance in particular.

Movies do not know any boundaries. Dance does not either. There is a common language joining them. The [...]

The Humus Film Fest is an international short film festival focused on environmental themes. It aims to showcase both professional and amateur filmmakers, broadening perspectives on the environmental challenges we face: the disconnect between rural and urban areas, the loss of nature in cities, rural depopulation, climate change, and the eco-social transition towards a society more respectful of its environment.

The Humus Film Fest was born and continues in this 11th edition with a distinctly hedonistic and optimistic spirit. Therefore, we encourage filmmakers not only to present stories that address these issues from a stark reality, but also to open their cameras to humor, poetry, surrealism, and experimental art. This allows us to approach more hopeful future environmental [...]
