FICSEM es un nuevo Festival de Cine Social y Ecológico, que iba a ver la luz por primera vez en 2020, en la zona del Mediterráneo.
Por causas mayores, y habiéndonos visto inmersos en una situación en la cual nos hemos visto afectados todos, hemos decidido amoldarnos a la situación actual, y darle un nuevo enfoque a nuestro festival. Manteniendo la ilusión y la pasión que sentimos por el mundo artístico.
Nuestro festival está orientado a la difusión y al fomento de los autores cinematográficos relacionados con temas de valor social y/o ecológicos.
Porque creemos en el poder del arte cómo medio transformador, nuestro aporte desde este festival es dar visibilidad a los proyectos que traten cambios medioambientales y sociales en los que nos vemos inmersos. Somos un festival internacional porque entendemos el mundo más allá de las barreras, y porque nos mueve la necesidad de conocer otras culturas y compartir lo mejor de la nuestra, cómo aporte a cualquier mejora en cualquier rincón del mundo.
El mediterráneo es el clima que nos envuelve, y nos sentimos identificados con él. En cuanto a calidez, cercanía y transparencia. Somos un festival que arranca fuerte, con un gran número de artistas comprometidos que comparten nuestra causa, y las ganas de compartir.
Y por ello no tenemos miedo a romper los patrones de festivales más clásicos. Tanto es así, que en el premio a mejor actor y/o actriz, el reconocimiento del premio recae sobre su labor social y/o ecológica… Y no solo en sus dotes.
A pesar de tener unas bases firmes ideológicas. Nos abrimos a otras áreas artísticas e iniciativas.
Entrance to the festival is free.
