Festival CinemaZERO

Trento, Italy


“ZERO cinema” is an artisanal and experimental artistic approach that contrasts the assembly line of industrial film production; it is hyper-independent, produced or auto-produced by single artists or small groups (less than 10 people) with no commercial interests; it is made with common and easily accessible, or innovative and low cost, means of production.

“ZERO cinema” has a different attitude, adventurous or poetic, DIY or punk, anarchic or self-sufficient, to the video work; it speaks with a personal, intimate, courageous and autonomous voice.

“ZERO cinema” is, more than any other thing, a strong idea of cinema and artistic production.

Facom Fest

Santiago de Compostela, Spain


About the festival.

Facom Fest is, in a few words, “a Galician audiovisual festival for students”. Consequently, its main interest lies in its commitment to Galician production and its focus on the student body. In this edition, we intend to give the greatest possible visibility to all filmmakers from Galicia. However, there is also room for other nationalities depending on the section.

From the festival organization, our position as students plays a crucial role in establishing dialogues with the participants. For this reason, despite being in a learning process ourselves, we hope to build a collectively enriching and nurturing dynamic. That is to say, to be able to share, among peers, a wealth of ideas, techniques… And even form a team!

As you surely know, often the projects we develop during this academic stage do not reach the dissemination we would like. Consequently, we intend to allow these works to opt for having their run on the screens. Crossing borders often seems like a complicated milestone in the professional world, so we hope this window can be useful.

Thus, in this new edition we dedicate our attention to students who are currently enrolled, or who completed their studies during or after the 2024-2025 academic year, at any university, or training center of any educational level, regardless of the geographical location.

This new edition of Facom Fest 2026 will take place between November 23th and 26th, 2026, in Santiago de Compostela. We look forward to seeing you!

*International Horror and Dissidence Film Festival Monstrua*

The International Horror and Dissidence Film Festival Monstrua is in its second edition and celebrates its first edition in the format of a film festival. Its first gathering took place at the Centro Cultural Elefante, and in this edition the festival consolidates its base in Santiago as a critical platform for the articulation of creators, researchers, audiences, and specialists linked to horror cinema.

Since its inception, the festival proposes horror as an aesthetic and political device to address dissidence. Understood as bodies, identities, memories, and narratives that escape the norm, with a particular focus on the experiences of the LGTBIQA2S+ community, the genre unfolds in Monstrua as a territory for discomfort, alterity, and the questioning of hegemonic imaginaries.

The program for this edition brings together a selection of national and international works that interrogate the limits of the genre and its capacity to push against the monstrous, the abject, and the forbidden. The screenings will be held at the historic Teatro Comunitario Novedades on Thursday, December 3, from 17:00 to 21:00 hours.
