You’ve chosen to film. Chosen to put together a visual piece of art if we may say so. Today when anyone with a camera can, in theory, make a film... how will you make your short film stand out? What you intend to do with your film is what the Bengaluru International Short Film Festival is all about. We will be what you create. 

After the tremendous success that was BISFF 2023, we are all set to host the 11th edition. Just as every year, this is an attempt to understand the medium a little better and go a little further in inventing new forms of storytelling as filmmakers.

The festival showcases shorts from across the world, creating a physical space for a great audience experience and bringing together a keen audience for the filmmakers. BISFF also exhibits works by past masters who have dabbled in short filmmaking that today is viewed as an art form that needs a unique approach. Additionally, the festival presents talks and panel discussions with leading thinkers and industry practitioners, enabling budding makers to interact with the best in the industry. BISFF also includes hands-on learning experiences in workshops and demonstrations by professionals, putting together an exclusive audience experience and perhaps space for makers to find what they are looking for.

El 14 FIC CLACPI se organiza en varias actividades de formación, difusión y promoción:

Muestras itinerantes: en todo el territorio del Ecuador se exhibirán películas reconocidas en los anteriores Festivales CLACPI, así como películas de Pueblos Indígenas del país anfitrión.

Encuentro de Realizadores y Realizadoras de Pueblos y Nacionalidades: alrededor de 50 personas nos reunimos a finales de marzo e inicios de abril para reflexionar el trabajo audiovisual desde una construcción propia, todo esto reforzando las ideas y corazonares base de nuestro caminar hacia el evento central del 14 FIC CLACPI 2022.

Laboratorio de cine para mujeres y disidencias: el audiovisual desde, con y para las mujeres y disidencias es necesario para contrarrestar la visión colonial y patriarcal del cine, para ello en julio del 2022 delegadas nacionales e internacionales serán parte de esta construcción colectiva con enfoque de género, generacional, diversa e intersectorial.

Seminario internacional de cine de Pueblos y Nacionalidades: la colonialidad del saber es una de las formas para encasillar y subordinar el quehacer audiovisual de los Pueblos Originarios, bajo la visión antropológica, paternalista y colonizadora se crearon categorías como “video indígena”, “cine indigenista comunitario”; es el momento para reconocer categorías propias que responden a nuestras formas de hacer, sentir y producir el audiovisual. En septiembre del 2022, con la participación nacional e internacional, nos juntamos a pensar y repensar nuestro cine.

Evento Central: comprende la muestra central del 14 Festival, los espacios de debate, laboratorios y muestras especiales durante 7 días en noviembre del 2022 en Quito, Ecuador. Este encuentro central tiene a la vez el evento de Inauguración y Clausura, acompañados de manifestaciones artísticas nacionales e internacionales.

Asamblea de CLACPI: la reflexión general, alcances y logros de quienes caminamos en el cine y la comunicación confluyen en este espacio para renovar los compromisos y las agendas de la Coordinadora Latinoamericana de Cine y Comunicación de los Pueblos indígenas.

Warsaw International Film Festival

Warsaw, Poland


Established in 1985, the Warsaw Film Festival joined in 2009 the elite group of events recognized by the International Federation of Film Producers Associations (www.fiapf.org) as international non-specialised film festivals - next to Cannes, Venice, Berlin, Locarno, San Sebastian, Karlovy Vary, Tokyo, Mar del Plata, Shanghai, Cairo, Fajr, Goa, and Tallinn.

The WFF differs from other festivals in its programme, just as Warsaw differs from other cities. Selecting the films, we always remember about our audience - native Varsovians, those working or studying in Warsaw, and those in town for a short while, for instance only for the Festival.

We do our best to make sure that our audiences get to know the latest and most interesting trends in world cinema as soon as possible. In this way, WFF audiences - usually as the first people in Poland - could discover American independent cinema as well as Asian, Latin American, Iranian, Russian and Romanian cinema. Some of the most amazing directors, like Michael Haneke, Cristian Mungiu, Paweł Pawlikowski, Ari Folman, Ashgar Farhadi, Lenny Abrahamson and hundreds of others, had usually been guests of the WFF before they reached the top.

We have been expanding the professional part of the WFF for over fifteen years. We realize that film festivals are part of the giant mechanism that is the global film industry. We do our best to make sure that the world takes note of Polish films, that they get screened at leading festivals, that they find their way into international distribution.

We started off modestly, in 2000, with screenings of new Polish projects for barely a dozen foreign guests. Five years later, we held the CentEast Market for the first time: a meeting place for professionals interested in films from Eastern Europe, described by The Hollywood Reporter as “the go-to event”. From 2009 till 2016, together with our Russian partner TVINDIE we have been presenting - in Warsaw and Moscow - films that are still works-in-progress but in which we want to interest sales agents and distributors. Similar presentations we organised at the Beijing Film Market from 2013-2016, with our Chinese partner Film Factory, under the name China-Eastern Europe Film Promotion Project.
