It is when the world is going through difficult times that we want to bring a little positivity and concentrate children in a creative direction. Dream and shoot!

Since its creation in 2013, the Santurtzi Film Festival has gradually evolved to become a benchmark event in the Basque Country, expanding fields of action and gaining in solidity. Always faithful to its three founding axes –the socio-cultural promotion of the municipality, the connection with the community from the artistic point of view and the promotion and professionalization of new directors– the original motto of "cinema at street level" has consolidated a distinctive personality –close, participatory cinema with a social vocation– that has served as a platform for emerging filmmakers and for cultural revitalization, social and economic of Santurtzi.
The great success of SZ has been to position itself as a platform for emerging Basque cinema: to screen and give space to short films and debut films that have then toured national and international circuits, which has reinforced the festival's reputation and attracted media attention and institutional collaboration. Among its greatest values is also an identity marked by horizontality: bringing authors and the public closer together, eliminating barriers between professionals and spectators and facilitating direct interaction in informal venues such as hospitality or historical spaces (Cofradía, Casa Torre).
What began as a post-crisis cultural antidote of 2008, with the idea of screening short films in bars on weekends, has grown thirteen years later: since then, more than 50,000 euros in prizes have been awarded and the making of more than 200 short films has been promoted in the local section, filmed in the village of Santurtzi. In the last edition, in 2025, there have been numerous sold-outs (such as at the SKA, with a capacity of 600 seats) and an overall record of attendance, participation and institutional collaboration.
The International Short Film Week Regensburg was founded in 1994 by the Arbeitskreis Film Regensburg e.V. (AKF e.V.) as a non-profit festival and has been held annually ever since.
What began as a small experiment has grown into an integral part of Regensburg’s cultural scene. Since March 2013, the festival has officially operated under the name International Short Film Week Regensburg.
At no fewer than four venues across Regensburg, the festival celebrates the short film format.
In addition, throughout the year the festival maintains a regional, national, and international presence through collaborations with partner festivals, supporters, and sponsors.
Four competitions form the heart of the festival, and the several thousand submissions received each year testify to the international relevance the festival has built over time.
Alongside the competitions for contemporary productions, the festival also presents a high-quality special programme featuring thematic and country-specific focuses as well as retrospectives. Some of these screenings are curated and presented by renowned guest curators, who also engage with audiences through discussions and contextual presentations.
Workshops, musical contributions, and art exhibitions further distinguish the festival from the wide range of cultural offerings and attract both interested audiences and industry professionals to the cathedral city alike.
Another important component of the festival is its programme of screenings for children and schools, accompanied by media education initiatives. These activities help preserve film as an art form while also encouraging critical and informed engagement with media in everyday life.
