With 48 years’ experience, ALCINE is witness, mouthpiece and promoter of the best national and international short films, new filmmakers, and the latest and most ground-breaking creations from the film scene – films that are not well suited to screening in commercial cinemas but appeal to audiences thirsty for new emotions.
This is one of the oldest and most prestigious festivals in the country and its main purpose is to discover talented new filmmakers. Well-established directors such as Alejandro Amenábar, Fernando León de Aranoa, Santiago Segura, Daniel Sánchez Arévalo, Juan Antonio Bayona and Javier Rebollo made their début with short films at Alcine.
Many festival planners and foreign buyers visit Alcine to discover Spanish short films, making the festival a launching pad for makers of shorts, as it enables them to take their films abroad. Guests at this 48th edition, with the collaboration of AC/E, are international planners from different countries.
