The ZAFIC International Film Festival (ZAFIC) is a cultural platform based in Mosquera, Colombia, that promotes cinema and audiovisual storytelling as tools for dialogue, community engagement, cultural exchange, and territorial development.
For its 9th edition, taking place from October 15 to 18, 2026, ZAFIC presents the thematic focus “Possible Futures / Futuros Posibles”, inviting creators from around the world to share stories that imagine, question, transform, and reimagine the future of our communities and territories.
ZAFIC welcomes short films and audiovisual works from any country and genre through three curatorial sections:
• Kids / Infancias
Works created for children, schools, and young audiences, encouraging imagination, creativity, learning, and intergenerational dialogue.
• Territory / Territorio
Works that explore identity, memory, heritage, community life, rurality, environment, cultural diversity, and social transformation.
• New Voices / Nuevas Voces
Works that present emerging perspectives, innovative narratives, new technologies, experimental approaches, or contemporary ways of understanding the world.
More than a film festival, ZAFIC seeks to connect cinema with communities, education, culture, and the future of territories through meaningful audiovisual experiences.
All submitted works must be spoken, dubbed, or subtitled in Spanish.
