Cantabric Gijon Film Festival

The Cantabric Gijon Film Festival is a yearly festival that takes place every summer in the spanish city of Gijón. We are an international film festival oriented towards giving visibility to new filmmakers and help amazing movies to get distribution. Our goal is to open the doors of the industry to new talents as well as giving the oportunities to producers and distributors to discover new and exciting projects. That´s why, on top of live screening at local theatres, the Cantabric Gijon Film Festival offers filmmakers oportunities to meet with representatives from streaming platforms and distribution companies in order to make their work reach as many people as possible. We are one of the very few festivals around the world that offers the selected projects a chance to meet with representative members of the industry. This festival has been created by individuals with solid experience working on the film industry and therefore, we want to put that experience and connections at the service of emerging filmmakers. But our interest is not limited to film, we also have a feature film script competition that, on top of a cash prize, offers the winners a chance to meet with several production companies. Our Jury is formed by film and TV professionals with years of experience and we are all excited and commited to reward originality and creative excellence. We hope to see your film soon.
