FICSEM is a new Social and Ecological Film Festival, which was going to see the light of day for the first time in 2020, in the Mediterranean area.


For major reasons, and having been immersed in a situation in which we have all been affected, we have decided to adapt to the current situation, and give a new focus to our festival. Maintaining the enthusiasm and passion we feel for the artistic world.


Our festival is aimed at the dissemination and promotion of film authors related to topics of social and/or ecological value.


Because we believe in the power of art as a transformative medium, our contribution from this festival is to give visibility to projects that address environmental and social changes in which we are immersed. We are an international festival because we understand the world beyond barriers, and because we are moved by the need to get to know other cultures and share the best of ours, as it contributes to any improvement in any corner of the world.


The Mediterranean is the climate that surrounds us, and we feel identified with it. In terms of warmth, closeness and transparency. We are a festival that is starting strong, with a large number of committed artists who share our cause, and the desire to share.

And that is why we are not afraid to break the most classic festival patterns. So much so, that in the award for best actor and/or actress, the recognition of the award falls on their social and/or ecological work... And not only on their skills.

Despite having firm ideological foundations. We open ourselves to other artistic areas and initiatives.

“Se podes olhar, vê, se podes ver, repara” - José Saramago.

O cinema é a arte de contar uma história através do olhar do cineasta, e ele o responsável por selecionar as histórias que serão contadas, e como elas serão contadas, além disso ele é responsável pela forma que elas serão vistas pelo público. É o olhar que diz o que é interessante ou não, é o olhar que diz quais histórias serão imortalizadas artisticamente pelo cinema. E este festival é para valorizar o olhar dos cineastas mundo afora, para celebrar e consagrar as suas originalidades, identidades e riquezas cinematográficas, as finalidades deste festival são de exibir e premiar tais características tão únicas além de compartilhar e socializar tais experiências e formas de se fazer cinema de forma gratuita para os espectadores.

A temática do festival é livre, pois acreditamos que o cinema é uma ferramenta muito rica e com um potencial fantástico para encantar e surpreender as pessoas, por tanto, limitar um festival que exalta o olhar cinematográfico seria o mesmo que limitar o potencial criativo desta incrível ferramenta humana que é o cinema.
O festival foi idealizado para ser on-line, para que assim possa atingir pessoas do mundo todo. Que ao agregar uma mostra internacional, tais cineastas possam presenciar o festival sem precisar se deslocar a outro país e ainda compartilhar a sua exibição com amigos, familiares e fãs.

Nós do Olhar Film Festival, sabemos o quanto é difícil agregar espectadores ao cinema independente e concorrer com plataformas de streamings, e com a grande indústria do cinema. Entretanto, também sabemos o imenso potencial e riqueza que o cinema independente possui e o quanto isso pode mudar e impactar a vida das pessoas. Por isso que o Olhar Film Festival é um festival aberto ao público e visa levar o cinema independente ao maior número de pessoas possíveis mundo afora.

Duration: three weeks

CAREFULLY READ RULES & TERMS: submission is free but a small contribution will be required only to participants.

In occasion of CTAO exhibition season 2023-2024, CON-TEMPORARY Art Observatorium presents "Art of Freedom - 2nd Edition", a collective art exhibition cycle that will be held at CTAO Exhibition Room in Lavagna, Italy.

FREE THEME: differently from all our group exhibitions, the cycle "Art of Freedom" is characterised by the absence of a leading theme, leaving total freedom to the artists, who are chosen on personality and contents, so that they can freely propose their most personal view, without fear of prejudices or censorship. This does not prevent them to freely take inspiration from freedom and to express in that sense. After all, art IS freedom, and freedom is a value that is always menaced, needing constant attention in order not to lose it.
