The Festival was born from a deep desire to allow an authentic cultural exchange.
For directors from all over the world, arriving in Zagora is truly a unique experience, which allows them to get closer to traditional Berber culture, culture understood in the broad sense of cinema, music, cuisine, spirit, nature and hospitality.
During the Festival, daily excursions are organized to discover the wonders of the place: Tamegroute, the Amezrou casbah, the Koranic Library etc…
The Festival has two sections:
• The Documentary Competition
• The Short Film Competition (max 15 minutes)
The Jury is the same for both sections.
The screenings take place inside the city's cultural center and also on a large screen set up in the desert.
A short distance from Ouarzazate, the major city of the Moroccan film industry, Zagora today represents the most important point of reference for cinema at the gates of the desert.
An unforgettable journey through the Atlas will allow you to discover a country rich in ancient traditions and at the same time very attentive to creative and artistic innovations.

First ever MACA Film Festival, themed "Shorts in Shorts," encapsulates the idea of microcosms of society. Selected stories will depict narratives set in a single environment featuring a train, record store or a local wine bar - visually constricted spaces as a breeding ground of ideas and cultural discourse. It explores our collective journey through time, where memories and aspirations converge in the present, offering us a chance to find new meanings in old debates and imagine alternate paths forward.

Experience the Power of Short Film at the 2nd Annual DIFF Shorts Film Festival
The Dallas International Film Festival proudly presents the 2nd Annual DIFF Shorts Film Festival, a celebration of the art of short-form storytelling. From October 17th - 19th, 2025, join us as we go beyond screenings to foster a dynamic connection between filmmakers, audiences, and the vibrant Dallas arts community.
We believe that film should be placed on the same pedestal as all of the other arts, and that applies equally to short films. Our intention with the DIFF Shorts Film Festival is to elevate the short film and to celebrate shorts filmmakers.
We want to hear your voice! Filmmakers attending DIFF Shorts are encouraged to participate in audience Q&As and panel discussions. We also actively collaborate with Dallas-area high schools and universities, connecting filmmakers with the next generation of storytellers.
Let's shorten the distance between idea and screen. Join us for the DIFF Shorts Film Festival from October 17th - 19th, 2025.
About the Dallas Film Society:
DIFF Shorts is a presentation of DIFF (Dallas Film Society, Inc.), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2006 “to celebrate films and their impact on society; to honor filmmakers and recognize their achievements and contribution in enhancing the creative community; to provide educational programs to students to develop better understanding of the role of film in today’s world; and to promote the City of Dallas and its commitment to the art of filmmaking".
This commitment of the early founders to the art of film and the artists who are its creators continues to guide the organization today. In addition, through curation of the broadest range of expression through film, DIFF is committed to serving as the region’s most powerful platform for diverse, emerging, and underrepresented voices. Throughout its history – before DEI was a familiar acronym – DIFF has demonstrated consistent commitment to providing accessible, inclusive, immersive, educational, and entertaining film experiences for all. It is the vision of DIFF that, by promoting wide and thoughtful expression through film, our organization can help foster human connection and greater appreciation for our common humanity and our rich diversity.
Supported by City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture.

The Bogotá International Documentary Film Festival (MIDBO), organized by the Colombian Documentary Filmmakers Corporation ALADOS, is an event specialized in documentaries that over the past 26 years has consolidated itself in Colombia and Latin America as a fundamental space for exhibition, dialogue, and thought around non-fiction audiovisual works.

After 26 editions, MIDBO continues to work on creating an event that fosters and trusts in reflection on documentaries, the ways in which we approach reality, with our main interest being the many ways of documenting the world. Committed to the goal of unraveling the complexity of a reality that exceeds us, we continue to build each year the ideal space to meet and reflect on documentary work.
For 2025, we maintain our interest in promoting creation and recognizing the efforts of filmmakers by offering two competitive sections: one for Ibero-American feature films and another for national short films. We will award the prize for Best Ibero-American Documentary Feature, for films longer than 60 minutes made in Ibero-America, and the prize for Best National Documentary Short, for films no longer than 30 minutes made in Colombia or by a Colombian. The jury for each competition will be announced one month before the event and will consist of three (3) artists, filmmakers, writers, critics, or cultural managers.
