This Festival has at its heart the objective of promoting the Arrábida Region in the world of cinema and so attract directors and producers to one of the best and most interesting destinations with the highest number of daylight hours of sunshine in Europe for filming. It is with great pleasure that we welcome an ever-increasing number of requests to film in the region, ranging from major film production companies to high end advertising brands for advertising campaigns. Every year we challenge those who visit us during the festival, to produce at least one small video to promote the festival itself, the region or the country. This challenge has become a veritable promotion engine of Portugal and the Arrábida region. We will also be holding a Sesimbra some photographic exhibition from another countries.The Jury is composed of 25 members from Spain, United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, France, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Brazil, Czech Republic,Turkey, Áustria and Russia and has have travelled “around the world” just by watching and classifying all the videos we received for this year’s competing entries. Every year the quality is higher and making decisions is much harder. The Arrábida Film Commission who organize this festival has as its main aim the promotion and support to the various film productions filmed in the´ Region and we firmly believe that in the future the festival may come to be a a very important catalyst in the cine-tourism promotion of the region.
