UFFS (Universal Film Festival Samothraki) is a global short film festival that will make its debut next summer in 2022 in the Greek island of Samothraki, an island in the north-east of Greece near the borders with Turkey. Our three-day festival will be annual and will take place each August bringing together creators and cinema lovers from all over the world. The first year selected films will be screened in August 2022 in Samothraki, Greece and will also be published on our social media (website, Facebook page, Instagram, FilmFreeway page). Our festival will also be advertised on T.V, radio and the press.
Samothraki is a natural heaven and a popular international destination for people of all ages and this is the reason why our aim is to cover all tastes and choices through a wide range of movie categories. Samothraki is also a wonderful place, rich in archeological sites, history, natural beauties, traditional tasty food, alternative nightlife and also picturesque landscapes.
Our mission and goal is to promote culture and discover and give talented young directors and film makers from all over the world the opportunity to present their work to a wider audience. We will select films created by all genders, various cultures and traditions dealing with matters that meet our past, present or future. Science fiction films will also be welcomed since imagination is the window to our souls.
Our judges are people that have dedicated their lives to art. In addition, the festival will host parallel activities before the screenings of films such as painting and photography exhibitions, speeches by local and relevant associations related to the festival themes, exhibition stands with handicrafts, jewelry and local products, theatrical performances, music concerts, etc. Finally, during the event, actors, directors, and other experts will be invited to talk about the field of the 7th art.
