Santander International Independent Film Festival (2027) - SANFICI

Logo of Santander International Independent Film Festival (2027) - SANFICI

SANFICI is a space to generate meetings at different levels, with an overcoming and innovative will. First of all, it is a space for the relationship between spectators, filmmakers and theorists around cinema and all border and heterodox manifestations. Secondly, it is a special and temporary meeting point.

SANFICI wants to become, year after year, the place of convergence for world independent cinema. But it also wants to be the space where the past and the future dialogue. The place where the most diverse film traditions are embraced with their riskiest proposals.

Plooy Independent Film Selection is the annual online showcase of Plooy, an Istanbul-based streaming platform built around independent filmmakers. It is a curated programme: films are chosen by our editorial team in Istanbul together with an invited jury, and screened over a ten-day window in December.
We are not looking for budget. We are looking for an original voice, an honest story, and craft that serves the story. First films and student films sit in the same programme as work by experienced directors. There is no premiere requirement — films that have already screened elsewhere, online included, are welcome.
Selected films are screened on plooy.tv in a protected player, with no downloads offered. During the screening window the platform is not yet open to the public: [...]
