Cine en Grande nace en el año 2014 con el propósito de acercar la cinematografía argentina a la isla de Tierra del Fuego, generar encuentros entre profesionales y fomentar la industria audiovisual en la región.
Año tras año, se ha ido consolidando como un espacio clave para exhibir el contenido producido en la región y como encuentro entre los distintos profesionales del país.
Entre los años 2020 y 2022 el festival se vió interrumpido por la propagación del COVID-19 (Coronavirus) y este año retoma sus actividades presenciales.
El Festival Mundial de Cine Futbolero busca promover el fútbol como un espacio de diálogo intercultural y patrimonio de la humanidad, a través del encuentro de diferentes actores de este fenómeno social. Propone como ejes de trabajo: los medios audiovisuales, las conversaciones, la práctica deportiva, la literatura y la formación de diplomados.

Nuestro objetivo es presentar una amplia gama de trabajos explorando las múltiples definiciones e interpretaciones del concepto de «underground».

Sh Internacional de MOSCA
owcase es un festival de cine no competitivo (solo para el Jurado Popular) y un proyecto sin fines de lucro.
FRESCO: una nueva fórmula de un festival de cine
Fresco es una iniciativa internacional que representa un formato completamente nuevo, distinto de las nociones propias de la sociedad. Un festival que tiene como objetivo la presentación de obras espirituales internacionales y piezas culturales combinadas con la organización de discusiones sociales libres y saludables sobre los temas planteados por ellas.
Muchos festivales muestran películas sobre problemas globales en los marcos de su programa. Como regla general, después de tales películas el público necesita discutir y adoptar lo que ha visto, sin embargo, la película sigue siendo la única fuente para una respuesta a las preguntas planteadas. Las críticas de películas «FRESCO» vienen a llenar este vacío.
FRESCO: un enfoque informal
«FRESCO» ofrece un enfoque informal a los participantes del festival de cine a lo largo de todas las etapas del festival, desde la revisión hasta los lugares donde se celebran los eventos, desde el asiento hasta el premio.
Las maravillosas películas, exposiciones fotográficas y espectáculos traídos a Armenia saldrán de los cines y literalmente «entrarán en las calles».
Las demostraciones al aire libre las 24 horas del día y las críticas de películas «sin entrada» se convertirán literalmente en parte de la vida cotidiana de los armenios 10 días después.
Programa de Cine FRESCO: Hablemos el lenguaje del humanismo
El festival contendrá programas competitivos y no competitivos. Ficción y documentales, largometrajes y materiales de vídeo de diferentes formatos, en los que se denuncian guerras, violencia, discriminación nacional, religiosa y de cualquier otro tipo, desastres ecológicos de origen humano, y en los que se defiende la paz, la tolerancia, el humanismo y los valores globales. :
Figuras de cine de fama mundial y otros invitados correspondientes a los temas de las películas mostradas, es decir - empleados de la iglesia, intelectuales, músicos, psicólogos, etc., serán invitados a Armenia de diferentes países para participar en el festival.
Acerca de los problemas globales en un lenguaje comprensible/simple
No sólo los creadores de la cinta de cine participarán en las discusiones siguientes, sino también los empleados de la iglesia, psicólogos y especialistas directamente relacionados con los temas surgidos en la película y los responsables del campo. Cualquier detalle conceptual y técnico relacionado con la revisión de la película debe contribuir a la participación activa y sin restricciones en los debates. Los especialistas formarán parte de los observadores de películas, las oraciones profesionales serán reemplazadas por una comunicación sin restricciones y discusiones activas. Las películas y la comunicación directa con sus creadores permitirán «notar» los temas reclamados en nuestro país, observarlos en el contexto de la experiencia de otros países, y la discusión con las personas especializadas y responsables del campo se convertirá en una de las formas más efectivas de desarrollar para la solución a esos problemas.
FRESCO está abierto a cualquier persona
El festival también otorga una importancia especial al empleo de grupos sociales especiales y especialmente personas con capacidades limitadas. Debido a la cooperación con los institutos especializados en el campo, las personas con discapacidad no sólo participarán en todas las medidas del festival, sino que también participarán activamente en todos los trabajos organizativos de «FRESCO».
Los objetivos del festival son:
- Promover el establecimiento del amor, la solidaridad y los valores humanos en la sociedad con la ayuda del diálogo espiritual y cultural,
- Profundir la tolerancia internacional y religiosa,
- Crear y promover el desarrollo de películas espirituales y morales y aumentar su conciencia social como factor social-cultural,
- Promover la comunicación entre representantes culturales de diferentes países y la creación de un campo mutuamente beneficioso para su colaboración.
Experimental Forum is an international performance, film and video art festival showcasing experimental film and artists’ moving image from new directors and innovative video artists from around the globe, with the third edition taking place in Los Angeles in November 2018. Our aim is to provide a supportive platform for the exciting and challenging work that is outside the scope of mainstream film festivals and art galleries.
We welcome experimental cinema pieces (abstract, narrative or documentary), video art works, essay films, artists’ moving image and media art, as well as documentary and narrative films that seek to expand, redefine or reconfigure the means and ends of their respective fields. Experimental Forum exists to provide access to, and develop audiences for, artists’ moving image work and is committed to engaging local audiences with new and/or unheard voices in film.
We are particularly interested in works made by early stage filmmakers and artists whose work is underrepresented. We provide a collaborative platform for moving image works made for the gallery and for the cinema with the aim of building a community across disciplinary and institutional faultlines.

12 Festival Audiovisual Infantil (FICAIJ), 2021/2022
Venezuela-Colombia
El Festival Audiovisual Infantil, conocido por sus siglas como FICAIJ, nace en Mérida, Venezuela, en 2010, y se consolida tras 12 años como una de las más importantes ventanas de exhibición de contenidos de calidad tanto educativos y alternativos como comerciales para niños, niñas, adolescentes, jóvenes y familias en el país y la región.
Tras haber atendido de forma directa a más de 41.385 mil participantes en sus 11 ediciones anteriores en 6 países del mundo. Frente al panorama de pandemia que vivimos por el COVID-19, asumimos el reto de transformarnos y activar nuestra edición número 12 en la web con incidencia principal en los países de la región. Adicionalmente, planeamos tener algunas proyecciones presenciales en Venezuela y Colombia.
Historia:
Más de 1.506 obras audiovisuales entre cortos y largos provenientes de 81 países del mundo fueron transmitidas a través de las pantallas del FICAIJ, y más de 392 personas entre niños, niñas, adolescentes, jóvenes y adultos cumplieron la labor de evaluar y ser jurados de esas obras.
Nuestros jurados no solo provenían de Venezuela y de Colombia sino de otros 9 países: Argentina, Brasil, Cuba, Ecuador, España, Italia, Kenia, México y Sudáfrica, participando en representación de sus lugares de procedencia.
Filosofía:
Promovemos el audiovisual desde una mirada reflexiva y productiva, invitando a niños, niñas, adolescentes y jóvenes a asumir un rol activo como creadores y prosumidores.
Misión:
El FICAIJ busca alentar la creación, producción, exhibición y distribución de contenidos de calidad para y por niños, niñas, adolescentes y jóvenes de la región, estimulando el protagonismo de los chicos en todos estos procesos.
2do. Laboratorio FICAIJ:
Con el doble propósito de fortalecer, por un lado, la producción de contenidos infantiles, juveniles y familiares a nivel regional, y por el otro la formación de docentes en la educación con y para los medios, necesidad más evidente ante la educación digital impuesta por la pandemia, la organización del FICAIJ asume el reto de desarrollar la 2da. edición de su Laboratorio FICAIJ, un espacio de formación dirigido al sector de producción de contenidos para chicos y chicas latinoamerican@s y al sector de la educación.
