Subfilmfest (0)

Início do Festival: 25 Julho 2014      Fim do Festival: 10 Agosto 2014

The SubFilmFest aims to attract an Albanian, Mediterranean and Global audience from film, anthropology, marine culture and biology students as well as all parties with an interest in the Coastal Zone. Apart from an educational purpose the Festival aims at creating a pool of people that will eventually produce culture, research and creative products related to the Coastal Zone.

The festival will be primarily "anchored" in the Velipoja beach, in northern Albania from the 25th of July to the 29th of July. Velipoja is well known for its diverse landscape as well as the smell of iodine from it's curative sand, which makes it a unique beach in the Albanian Coast. Velipoje is also considered the place where the Albanian Coast begins. Because of the inmmense attention the southern beaches have acquired in the last decade, Velipoje could become its cultural counterpart in the northern area. The beach will be subjected to minimal changes for the accommodation of the festival with eco-friendly structures and interventions. Parallel to the screenings the film festival will include discussions and workshops as well as cultural, leisure and gastronomic events and purchasable services that will enrich the Coastal Zone experience.

This year the festival will not be a competitive festival just a showcase of works that deal with coastal and marine issues.

THE FILM FESTIVAL


The festival will be primarily anchored in the Velipoja beach, in northern Albania. Velipoja is well known for its diverse landscape as well as the smell of iodine from its curative sand, which makes it a unique beach in the Albanian Coast. Velipojë is also considered the place where the Albanian Coast begins. Because of the inmmense attention the southern beaches have acquired in the last decade, Velipojë could become its cultural counterpart in the northern area. The beach will be subjected to minimal changes for the accommodation of the festival with eco - friendly structures and interventions.


THE SUMMER CINEMAS:

All films screened during the festival will be shown in the next ten days following the festival, from the 1st to the 10th of August, in one of the seven Albanian coastal destinations: Velipoja, Durrës, Golem, Vlorë, Orikum, Dhërmi, Saranda in the format of the open summer cinemas.


THE AUTOKINO

There will be another screening of all films selected in the festival during the Automobile Cinema project called AutoKino also from the 1st of August to the 10th of August. The AutoKino, an event practiced in the past in Albania, is a mobile truck that would take the films to the audiences of the beaches and urban centers close to the coast that do not have summer cinemas.
