Transterritorial Underground Film Festival – 22nd Edition (2026)
The Transterritorial Underground Film Festival is an annual, self-managed and decentralised event that, since 2005, has brought together venues and exhibition spaces in various cities across Latin America and other territories. Its identity is based on the free circulation of audiovisual works, formal experimentation, aesthetic research and the visibility of works that remain outside industrial or hegemonic circuits.
The festival receives and exhibits audiovisual productions of all kinds: unpublished, experimental, marginal, independent, community-based or simply outside the commercial logic of contemporary cinema. It is screened in unconventional, community, cultural and self-managed spaces, creating a trans-territorial network that operates as a social, political and emotional tool.
Thousands of works have passed through this network in its twenty-year history, transforming the relationship between filmmakers, programmers and viewers. The 22nd edition continues this quest, expanding the modes of exhibition and maintaining a programme connected with emerging languages, aesthetic risk and subjectivities expressed from the margins.
The selected works may be screened at any venue in the network, in satellite screenings or in subsequent travelling cycles, always in non-commercial contexts and with cultural, educational or community objectives.
The participating venues in 2025 included screenings in Tigre, Quilmes, Ituzaingó, Berazategui, Necochea, Pehuajó and CABA (Buenos Aires), Rio Cuarto (Córdoba), Rosario (Santa Fe) and Tucumán in Argentina; Pamplona and Medellín (Colombia), Punta del Diablo (Uruguay) and Berlin (Germany).

Backed by the prestigious University of Zulia, we are the longest-running short film festival in Venezuela, organised by the Cine Club Universitario de Maracaibo since 1981, in turn the first to be established in the country, in 1962, prior to the creation of the National Film Archive of Venezuela (1966).
The name of the festival was chosen because of the historical importance of the pioneer Manuel Trujillo Durán for the development of the production and diffusion of cinema in Venezuela, who only 13 months after the projections made by the Lumière brothers in Paris in December 1895, made possible the exhibition on 28 January 1897 at the Baralt Theatre in Maracaibo, of two of his films, an event recognised as the first cinematographic projections in the country.
HISTORY:
The origins of the FMTFD date back to the project drawn up by the professors of the University of Zulia: Gabriel Arriechi, Fernando Perdomo and Ricardo Ball, who with the unconditional support of Sergio Antillano, Rosa María Salom and Rafael Araujo organised the first edition, which took place from 28 to 31 January 1981 in various cultural spaces in Maracaibo.
TODAY:
Since its 15th edition in 2020, the festival has opened its doors to works and filmmakers from all over the world.
