>> Our Vision
Sharing moments that move people through films with cars.
International Auto Film Festa (IAFF) is a film festival that connects people, cultures, and emotions through the presence of automobiles.
>> What We Believe
Cars are more than speed or technology.
They are part of our lives—traveling with us, shaping memories, and sharing landscapes.
Films that capture these moments have the power to move hearts beyond borders.
>> An Open Film Festival
IAFF is open to everyone.
Brands, budgets, countries, and generations do not matter.
Anyone who loves cars can express their passion through film and share it with the world.
>> Our Starting Point
IAFF began with a desire to share stories, feelings, and ideas—and continues to grow from there.
Even unknown creators can make films that truly touch people.
We exist to discover and celebrate that kind of honest creativity.
>> Growing Together
IAFF grows with its filmmakers, jurors, audiences, and partners.
It is not for the benefit of a few, but a place to be enjoyed by many.
Together, we continue exploring new stories and new perspectives.

La GRAN pantalla is an intergenerational cinematographic meeting space that seeks to dismantle stereotypes about older people through cinema. We look for stories that allow us to generate new readings and discourses about older people, beyond the conventional representations that are usually associated with this stage of life.
La GRAN pantalla seeks to delve into topics such as the sexuality of older people, the digital divide, unwanted loneliness, palliative care, intergenerational dialogues, cohousing, LGBTIQ+ older people, dignified death, migrant older people and all the visions that this population group may have about contemporary social problems such as the climate crisis, demographic change, new forms of families and organization, international conflicts, urban planning, art and social change, etc.
The seventh edition of this contest will take place from 30 June to 4 July 2026 in the city of Barcelona with a showing in Mollet del Vallès and Sabadell (Catalonia).
La GRAN pantalla is an original idea of elParlante, an organization specialized in the design, implementation, and evaluation of communication strategies. For some years now, elParlante has been developing social projects for older people through theater, audiovisuals and formal education.
