This Festival is a fundamental sample of development and exchange in the film and audiovisual arts industry and is a must for directors, actors, producers, distributors and film lovers. The 33rd edition will be held between 10th and 17th November, and is supported by AC/E through support for Mobility grants by PICE, defraying the travelling expenses of the Spanish film-makers Isaki Lacuesta, Elena López Riera and Elías Leon Siminiani so that they are able to present their most recent work at the festival.

Isaki Lacuesta will be presenting his film "Entre dos aguas” (Between Two Waters) in the international competition, and three showings of the film before the Argentine public in the Auditorium Theatre.
