‘Mal del Cap, Naratives Mal Dites" is the name of the International Festival of Short Films and New Narratives that Mal del Cap, Cultura Mal Dita of Eivissa has been running since 2014.
This festival aims to be a meeting place and a place to generate ties between the participants and the citizens of Eivissa with the aim of consolidating itself as a space with the potential to forge encounters for audiovisual exhibition and creation.
‘Mal del Cap’ is an independent festival based on experimentation and the search to find new ways of narrating or expressing through the image, and to this end we are organising a short film competition to encourage the participation of citizens, especially the youngest members of the population.
It is a Festival with two sections to contest. Official Section and Section of Asturian Short Films. Three prizes will be awarded (best short official section, best performance and best short Asturian). All the information is in the bases. Any author of any nationality can participate.
Doctors of the World in Spain (Metges del Món), Casino Prado and scannerFM in collaboration with Assemblea de Cooperació Per la Pau (ACPP) and Area Visual. and with the support of Agència Catalana de Cooperació al Desenvolupament (ACDD) are calling for entries for the 1st Femifilms Short Film Competition as part of Festival Dona, held annually in Sitges, Barcelona. Different prizes will be awarded to audiovisual creation of short films having a Gender and Human Rights-Based Approach (GHRBA).
This contest seeks to promote gender equality and support the project Enfoquem en Púrpura (Let's Focus on Purple). All short film entries should tell stories based on the phrase "Wow, what a privilege!", taken from the participative appraisal of women in the audiovisual industry Enfoquem en Púrpura (https://www.enfoquemenpurpura.org/es/diagnosi/).
The idea is to relate the terms 'privilege' and 'woman' in a conscious way to try tohighlight the different ways of being a woman.
The extravagance of proposing to two film authors who are friends of each other and deeply linked by their love for images, to cover the role of Presidents of the "Piccolo Cinema Paradiso Award", is confirmed in the Second Edition of the 2023/2024 Award.
Silvano Agosti and Franco Piavoli have realized during their lives, a filmography of exceptional artistic quality. To honor their participation, we will screen some of their short films that will open the day of the Awards for the best films selected by tue Juries. The preciousness of their presence pushes us to consider the PCP Award as a sort of legacy to the creativity of each one of those who will participate to the selection, sending us their creations made in compliance with the characteristics of Productive Independence. We are sure that supporting this type of Cinema is increasingly in tune with our present that is rich in proposals, but not open to their dissemination. For this reason we will strive to offer the winning film, a space in the programming of Sale D'Essai of the italian territory.
We are waiting for you, with the pleasure and desire to amaze us again.

Wallachia International Film Festival is a highly professional, industry connected film festival, an exclusive independent grassroots film festival taking place in an exquisite location in Downtown Bucharest, only hundreds of meters away from Dracula’s former court in the grand Old Town!
We won multiple cinema prizes including important awards at major film festivals, like Cannes, Locarno, Montreal, London, Milan, Miami and Atlanta. Also, our advertising work received accolades at Clio, Effie, In-Awe, Lion Awards, ANDY Awards and Ad’Or, while working for companies like Coca-Cola, UNICEF, McDonalds, Renault, Yahoo! and Nestlé-Purina.
But there’s nothing we love more than indulging ourselves with cinematic candies from all over the world, under the autumn night sky of Wallachia. We will be arguing for a long time about which ones we feel are the best, and about the most promising unproduced screenplays.
Welcome to Wallachia, the Legendary Land of Voivode Vlad III Dracula, universally known as Vlad the Impaler. Born in 1431, Vlad was an authoritarian Principe, he revolutionized the affairs of Wallachia and refused to pay tribute to the sultan Mehmed II, resulting in a bloody war with the Ottomans. Multiple works containing stories about Vlad's cruelty were published soon after his assassination in 1475. In 1897, Bram Stoker downgrades Prince Vlad to Count Dracula, a blood-sucking vampire inspired by Wallachian ancient folklore. Loosely based on the book, Dracula (1931) casts immortal Bela Lugosi as the doomed romantic Count.
Just think cinétopia! Feel hundreds of years of mythic Wallachian history under the night sky! It’s a 100% natural film affair!
We watch all movies, we read all screenplays and we select exclusively based on artistic merits.
