The Festival

Cinema is art, teamwork, and communication. It is also a means of shaping identity—both individual and collective.

Creating new spaces and screening venues throughout the country facilitates the circulation of feature films, short films, and other audiovisual works, making them accessible to audiences who might otherwise lack easy access to them.

Thus, through the creation of this new platform—the Cosquín International Independent Film Festival—we aim to bring to this region fresh perspectives that emerge, year after year, from various parts of Argentina and the world.


OBJECTIVES

To contribute, through cinema, a new element to the process of shaping our cultural and social identities.

The Fashion Cinema Festival was created to shine a spotlight on the art of costume design—an essential element in the magic of filmmaking—and to celebrate the unique connection between fashion and the cinematic world.

Every garment tells a story. Costume design reveals the essence of each character, transforms actors, and brings to life the worlds that only cinema can imagine.

At our festival, we honor the brilliant creators behind costume design and offer experiences, encounters, and activities that showcase the extraordinary work of these artists.

Fashion takes center stage in this section, illuminated through a truly cinematic lens.
