El programa “Versión Española” (TVE) y la Fundación SGAE (SGAE), convocan el XXII Concurso Iberoamericano de Cortometrajes “Versión Española / SGAE”, orientado a la difusión y fomento de los nuevos autores en el sector de la creación audiovisual
This cultural proposal takes place within the framework of the commemoration of a new anniversary of Punta del Este, celebrating the best independent cinema from around the world. It began as a Mercosur cinema and grew to become an international festival. Cine del Mar has been declared of Presidential Interest and is sponsored and supported by the Ministry of Tourism, the Municipality of Maldonado, the Municipality of Punta del Este, the Ministry of Education and Culture through ACAU (Uruguayan Film and Audiovisual Association), and the embassies of the participating countries.
MARCO DEL CONCURSO. TEMA AMPLIADO
La Asociación de personas enfermas y trasplantadas de corazón y pulmón de Euskadi “Atcore” nace en 1996 con el objeto de sensibilizar a la sociedad a favor de la donación de órganos y atender a personas enfermas y trasplantadas, así como a sus familiares. De esta forma, hemos conseguido que en Euskadi tengamos una red que nos ayude a poder dar voz y visibilizar el tema de la donación.
Entendemos que cuando alguien nos habla de donaciones de órganos, éstas van asociadas directamente con accidentes, defunciones, etc… Sin embargo, nosotros queremos lanzar una reflexión. Esta es que para muchas familias las donaciones son regalos de tiempo, regalos de vida de personas que por muy diferentes casuísticas no van a poder seguir utilizándolos. Regalos que son el mayor reflejo de la solidaridad humana.
En una sociedad como la nuestra en la que la solidaridad se ve en cualquier rincón (Banco de alimentos, asociaciones de carácter social de todo tipo, grupos de autoayuda, etc…), la pandemia sanitaria que hemos vivido durante dos años: dos largos años, nos ha dejado muy tocados a todas y todos y, sobre todo, ha dejado aparcadas muchas de las realidades sociales y de salud que seguimos sufriendo.
En esta sociedad de la que hablábamos, abierta cada día más a la información a través de Internet y de las redes sociales, somos conscientes que las campañas de sensibilización pro-donación de órganos; es decir, a favor de estas realidades sociosanitarias, deben tener reflejo en las redes. Y por qué no decirlo, acercarnos a través de ellas a un colectivo que bien no utiliza otro sistema de comunicación o recepción de información, o bien no se ha parado a reflexionar sobre este tema: las personas jóvenes.
Parece que la donación de órganos es cuestión de “personas mayores”. Pues según el Registro Mundial de trasplantes, la fuente más veraz a nivel mundial, el estado español sigue manteniendo el timón al frente de la Unión Europea en cuanto a donaciones. Actualmente hay más de cien mil personas esperando una donación, entre ellos muchos jóvenes y niños.
Está analizado que cada persona que dona puede salvar 8 vidas y mejorar más de cincuenta. Y este es el punto de partida de este concurso. La idea es que podáis plasmar, a través de las imágenes, a través de un corto de menos de 2 minutos, una historia que nos hable de solidaridad, de regalo, de volver a comenzar, de esperanza. Un alegato inequívoco a favor de la donación de órganos. Porque donar es regalar vida.
LEHIAKETAREN ESPARRUA. GAI ZABALDUA
Gaixoen eta bihotz eta biriketako transplantatuen Euskadiko Elkartea, Atcore, 1996an sortu zen, gizartea organoak ematearen alde sentsibilizatzeko eta gaixorik eta transplantatuta dauden pertsonak eta haien senideak artatzeko. Horrela, Euskadin sare bat izatea lortu dugu, ahotsa ematen eta dohaintzaren gaia ikusarazten lagunduko diguna.
Ulertzen dugu norbaitek organo-emateei buruz hitz egiten digunean, horiek istripuekin, heriotzekin eta abarrekin lotura zuzena dutela. Guk, ordea, hausnarketa bat egin nahi dugu. Izan ere, familia askorentzat dohaintzak denbora-opariak dira, pertsonen bizitza-opariak, eta, hainbat kasuistika direla medio, ezingo dituzte erabiltzen jarraitu. Giza elkartasunaren isla handiena diren opariak.
Gurea bezalako gizarte batean, zeinetan elkartasuna edozein txokotan ikusten den (elikagaien bankua, mota guztietako gizarte-elkarteak, autolaguntza-taldeak, etab.), bi urtez bizi izan dugun osasun-pandemiak: bi urte luzez, oso ukituta utzi gaitu guztiok, eta, batez ere, bazter utzi ditu jasaten jarraitzen dugun gizarte- eta osasun-errealitate asko.
Hitz egiten ari ginen gizarte honetan, gero eta gehiago Internet eta sare sozialen bidezko informaziora irekita, jakin badakigu organoak ematearen aldeko sentsibilizazio-kanpainek, hau da, errealitate soziosanitario horien aldeko kanpainek, isla izan behar dutela sareetan. Eta zergatik ez esan, horien bidez beste komunikazio-sistemarik edo informazioa jasotzeko sistemarik erabiltzen ez duen kolektibo batengana hurbiltzea, edo gai horri buruz hausnartzen gelditu ez den kolektibo batengana hurbiltzea: gazteengana.
Badirudi organoak ematea adineko pertsonen kontua dela. Izan ere, Transplanteen Munduko Erregistroaren arabera (mundu mailako iturririk egiazkoena), Espainiako estatuak lema izaten jarraitzen du Europar Batasuneko buru, dohaintzei dagokienez. Gaur egun ehun mila pertsona baino gehiago daude dohaintza baten zain, horien artean gazte eta haur asko.
Aztertzen ari gara dohaintza egiten duen pertsona bakoitzak 8 bizitza salba ditzakeela eta berrogeita hamar baino gehiago hobetu. Eta hau da lehiaketa honen abiapuntua. 2 minutu baino gutxiagoko film labur baten bidez, irudien bidez, elkartasunaz, opariaz, berriz hasteaz, itxaropenaz hitz egingo digun istorio bat islatu ahal izatea da asmoa. Organoak ematearen aldeko alegatu argia. Dohaintza bizitza oparitzea delako.

Sound and Music Film Festival Makedonska 21 is taking place in an old Belgrade building dating back to early 20tth century (1928), which is situated on Makedonska 21 street. This was the building of the strongest workers union at the time, founded to promote highly respected values of mutual respect and solidarity. After the Second World War the premises were used by Radio Belgrade as the location of Studio 10, which was the home of most significant radio dramas and music records. This place was responsible for introducing the art of sound to Belgrade listeners and making it an essential part of their cultural heritage, proving itself to be of an immeasurable artistic, cultural, and social significance.
Today, the building is a blend of residential and commercial units. Relying on the building’s rich history, their residents decided to give something in return and contribute to its tradition by starting a film festival that celebrates the art of film music and sound design.
The festival is intended to be a professional networking platform for anyone coming from these fields –film composers, sound designers, sound recordist, music producers, musicians, music bands, to name a few, in order to give them the opportunity to explore, learn, exchange their knowledge and unite ideas.
The festival welcomes films of all categories – documentary films, short fiction films, experimental films, animated films, of all genres, as long as they are commited to creative use of their soundscape.
The bulding premises alow this event to spread its sound magic on various stages simoultaneously – from the monumental hall with great acoustics, and music store Metropolis located on the ground floor, all the way to the roof top, where people can enjoy films and live music over drinks under the vast Belgrade sky.
GIJÓN/XIXÓN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (FICX) aims to showcase a wide and varied selection of auteur cinema currently being produced worldwide and especially focused on innovative films and emerging filmmakers. High quality, personal, young in its shape, edgy and independent cinema at a creative level. During its selection process, the Festival will prioritise those works of interest that have their World, International, European or Spanish premiere at FICX as well as those that do not have commercial distribution agreements in the Spanish territory.

Arthouse Asia is an annual breeding space of independent filmmakers. Over the years independent filmmaking has changed a lot, the Asian independent filmmaking market is increasing steadily. The Past has taught us "United we stand, divide we fall".
Arthouse Asia is an effort to unite worldwide independent filmmakers in a single platform. We know the path is not an easy way but we believe independent filmmaking is the true way of practicing art through filmmaking medium. The studio system is a money generating system, it does not allow experimentation as it always tends to follow the already established monetary model.
So we believe independent filmmaking is the future of filmmaking.
