RULES OF THE 13th INTERNATIONAL YOUTH FILM FESTIVAL, PLASENCIA ENCORTO 2026.
The Regional Ministry of Education, Science and Vocational Training of the Government of Extremadura, the Plasencia City Council and the 24 Fotogramas Cultural Association announce the 13th International Youth Film Festival: Plasencia Encorto.
"The fantastic emerges from reality like the moon over a misty swamp."
The idea for the Festival was born from our passion for the Pallars Sobirà, a remote region of the Pyrenees, its stories and legends, and for cinema. Our desire to preserve the most mysterious heritage of this wild land grew into the Tabaca Film Fest – the Mythological Film Festival of the Pyrenees.
This is a land rich in its own myths and legends, but every corner of the world has its own Yeti, its own mermaid, its own werewolf, its own mountain guardian — in short, its own mythological imagination.
With the Tabaca Film Fest, we bring to light these stories from the Pallars, the Pyrenees and all over the world through the art form we know best: cinema.
This Festival embodies values we care deeply about: quality cinema and the preservation of mythological and historical memory, in an extraordinary natural setting.
The Tabaca Film Fest includes short films in the categories of fiction, animation, documentary, and video-dance, featuring an international open call and complementary activities.
The third edition of Tabaca Film Fest will take place in person in Gerri de la Sal from September 18 to 27, 2026.
The Festival will include an opening ceremony, screenings of the finalist films, and a closing gala with an award ceremony. In parallel, there will be lectures, guided tours, workshops, concerts and other mythology-related cultural activities.
Galichnik Film Festival is small festival looking to leave big footprint in the sky full of festivals by providing platform for new filmmakers from the region and beyond. Galichnik is a village known for its well-preserved traditional architecture, including an amphitheater in the village square, where the festival audience will have the chance to see number of films in three competition programs: short fiction, short documentary and short animation.
The festival aspires to become a meeting point for film professionals from around the world to develop new ideas, collaborations and friendships. We are excited for the audience to be part of a unique cinema experience in an open air cinema at an altitude of 1500m.
The screenlights Film Festival is a dynamic and evolving cinematic celebration now entering its THIRD year.

SOL Film Festival is an international short film festival held in Torrevieja (Spain), bringing together filmmakers and audiences around contemporary cinema. The festival promotes both national and international talent, featuring the presence of directors and actors, a professional jury, and activities open to the public. Each edition is built around a specific theme, establishing itself as a cultural meeting point by the Mediterranean.
Since ancient times, human emotions have been intense and profound, driving both acts of love and acts of hate. History, written by those who have triumphed, often does not fairly reflect all voices. Although it seemed that intolerance and hatred were things of the past, reality shows otherwise. Today, the LGBTIQ+ community faces significant challenges.
It is essential for queer, lesbian, gay, trans, and all those identified with sexual diversity to unite in celebrating love and diversity. This is a call to gather, show love, and honor the struggle and sacrifice of those who paved the way. In a world where hate becomes the constant and exclusion becomes part of the norm, loving becomes a powerful act. Unity and love are the tools to build an inclusive future where being different is a fundamental right and an expression of freedom.

inFCTA 2026 – 10th Edition of the Terra Alta Film Festival
Bot, Catalonia – August 2–8, 2026
www.infcta.com
The Terra Alta Film Festival — inFCTA is a competitive short film festival held annually in Bot, in the heart of the Terra Alta region (Catalonia, Spain). The project is rooted in the conviction that cinema is a tool for thought and encounter, and that artistic excellence can be developed with the same rigor in a rural context as in any major cultural centre.
Since its first edition, inFCTA has developed a distinctive model that combines a solid competitive structure, professional presence, and a strong connection to its territory. The festival understands its setting not as a backdrop, but as a cultural context that actively engages in dialogue with the works and their creators. The programme places cinema at its core, surrounded by industry activities, training initiatives, and spaces for exchange between filmmakers and audiences.
The call for entries is open annually. Submitted works are evaluated by a professional selection committee and assessed by an independent jury, according to clearly defined curatorial criteria: narrative and formal quality, artistic coherence, creative risk, and plurality of perspectives. The festival is committed to singular voices, to supporting emerging talent, and to fostering the active presence of selected filmmakers throughout the event.
The 10th edition, to be held from August 2 to 8, 2026, consolidates this trajectory and reinforces its competitive and professional dimension, while maintaining an open outlook towards the European context and the evolution of contemporary audiovisual language.
