The North Film Festival (TNFF) – Now LIVE in Barcelona!
February 18–20, 2026
IMDb-qualifying | In-person screenings | Barcelona, Spain
Born in Sweden in 2020, The North Film Festival (TNFF) was created with one goal in mind: to celebrate bold, independent cinema from around the world — and to connect the hearts of filmmakers and film lovers across borders.
Over the last four amazing years, TNFF has grown into a dynamic platform with both online and live editions, proudly supporting Swedish filmmakers while welcoming international voices. Our deep belief in the power of this project even led us to expand — giving birth to our sister festival, The North Film Festival – New York City, which has since become a huge success in the U.S.
But as many of you know, sustaining an in-person festival without consistent local funding in Sweden has been a challenge. So, while it was not an easy decision, we are making an exciting leap forward:
The North Film Festival is officially moving to Barcelona, Spain — and it’s going LIVE.
Thanks to new funding opportunities and a strong cultural partnership in Barcelona, the festival will now take place in one of Europe’s most creative and cinematic cities. Barcelona is a city that breathes film, art, and storytelling — and it's the perfect new home for the next chapter of TNFF.

Moscow International Film Festival (MIFF) is one of the oldest world film forums (the second after the Venice Film Festival). The Moscow International Film Festival has been leading its history since 1935. Then the chairman of the jury was Sergey Eisenstein, and the film Chapaev opened the first festival. However, in subsequent years the festival was not held regularly. Therefore, the Moscow International Film Festival has officially counted down since 1959, when it was renewed and turned into a regular event - it was carried out over odd years, alternating with the Karlovy Vary Film Festival. In 1999 MIFF became an annual event.
