Gandhara Independent Film Festival 2026, 7th Edition (Online & In-Person)

STELLAR STORIES, ONE FESTIVAL

GIFF 2026 commits to curating some of the most exceptional films from around the globe. GIFF began with its first virtual edition in 2020 to allow a larger audience to experience a diverse range of films, particularly the cinephiles in Pakistan who were starved of a curated line-up of films which exemplified stellar storytelling. Over the last 6 years, GIFF has provided filmmakers a chance to reach out to a global audience and showcase their talent internationally.

The 2026 edition is imminent, and submissions are open. We are looking forward to riding the waves of emotions brought forth through your remarkable stories.

*Submissions are free.

Each short film represents time, decisions, a way of seeing, of telling, and of expressing.

In its 15th edition, El Festivalico continues to receive works from all over the world, each one very different from the others.

Not all of them are screened.

The selection is carried out by a team with diverse sensibilities and perspectives.

This process takes us months of viewing, always approached with the utmost respect and rigor for every work received.

Over the years, some of the selected works have continued their journey, later being selected and awarded at the Goya Awards, among other recognitions.

But all of them are part of the same thing:
the need to tell stories and to be seen.

For a few days, a selection of these stories is shared and experienced.

LA PECCA -Small Environmental Film Contest- was born in 2007 by the DeFrente Association.

The main purpose of this project is to promote respect for sexual and gender diversity through cinema, contributing to the development of a plural and inclusive society.
Taking a quality film event as a vehicle, we show plural life stories and encourage people to visibly live their sexual and gender identity, to promote social awareness and claim at the same time the right of the LGTBIQ + community to be present in culture and in society equally.

We also give visibility and support to quality cinematography, promoting the discovery of new talents.
