Cypriot and Greek Film Festival of Barcelona

Barcelona, Spain


1. The Festival is held for the fifth year. The aim of the Festival is to present to the spanish public modern Greek and Cypriot short and feature films in an effort to highlight contemporary artistic currents and producers from Greece and Cyprus - films produced from January 2020 until today. This Festival can become a bridge of communication between these Mediterranean countries through works of the seventh art. Furthermore, we believe that with such a festival the Greek and Cypriot expatriates of Barcelona will strengthen their national ties and the spanish-catalan public will get to know the character of Cyprus and Greece. The Festival has been embraced by the local Greek community and by locals who show a special interest in contemporary greek cinema.

2.1 Projection of Cyprus and Greece as a film setting and film production location.
