Frame Film Festival

Itinerante, Spain


FRAME Film Festival es un festival de cortometrajes itinerante, sin una única ubicación, que se celebrará en la provincia de Tarragona.

El FRAME Film Festival consta de dos fases.

• FASE CLASIFICATORIA
• FASE FINAL

El objetivo principal es difundir y promover la cinematografía en general y el cortometraje en particular, apoyando a las directoras y los directores de cortometrajes y creando un espacio donde puedan dar a conocer sus trabajos.

Pero sobre todo trabajamos para que las y los cineastas se sientan acogidos y vivan la experiencia de visitarnos cómo si estuvieran en familia. LA GRAN FAMILIA DEL CORTOMETRAJE!

Otro motivo es ampliar la oferta de acontecimientos culturales para hacer llegar el cortometraje a a poblaciones que no tengan la oportunidad de disfrutar de nuestro cine en formato CORTO.

En el FRAME Film Festival queremos darle al público que sigue y disfruta los cortometrajes, la oportunidad de decidir sobre la selección de las películas que pasarán a la FASE FINAL para recibir los premios TALENTO FRAME.

Dinamo Sports Club of Mayrit is proud to present its first Film Festival dedicated to equality in sport.

We are the first mixed football team aspiring to be professional in Spain, and our goal is to make gender segregation in professional football disappear: we think it is an outdated and unfair way of categorizing footballers, when what should prevail first and foremost are technical skills and football quality, not gender.

In order to carry this project forward, we have decided to use a very powerful tool, capable of changing society and showing them other realities and possibilities: cinema.

The selected films will be screened in person at the El Nido Social Center in Hortaleza on June 13 and 14. The awards ceremony will take place on June 15, following a soccer tournament for equality in which several Hortaleza teams will participate, at the CES School of Image and Sound.
