Full Promotion of All Submitted Projects

One of the festival’s most distinctive features is our commitment to promoting every submitted project, not just the winners. We believe every film represents the hard work and passion of its creators, which is why we showcase them across our social media and communication channels. This inclusive approach is something very few festivals around the world offer, and we’re proud to lead the way.

Collaboration with Local Schools

We believe in the power of film as an educational and expressive tool for new generations. That’s why we actively collaborate with local schools, giving students the opportunity to present documentaries they have created. This partnership not only enriches our program but also nurtures young talent and strengthens the bond between the festival and the educational community of Olot.
