Todo es Prompt is an international online film festival for short and feature films created with artificial intelligence. This AI film festival invites filmmakers, artists, and creators from around the world to explore new forms of audiovisual storytelling using AI tools.

The festival was born at a moment of transformation in cinema. For years, many creators depended on funding, open calls, juries, and lengthy validation processes that left more projects out than in. Meanwhile, technology was quietly advancing. Today, AI filmmaking tools allow ideas, prompts, and screenplays to be transformed into cinematic visuals.

Today an idea can become a scene.
Today a text can become a movie.
Today the act of directing can begin with a simple instruction: a prompt.
