Dear friends,
First and foremost, we want to thank you. This 2026, AricaDoc celebrates its 10th anniversary, and your films have been fundamental in walking this path. That is why we want to celebrate this milestone by inviting you once again to share your works with the communities of audiences that have grown around our festival.
We know that the global context can seem daunting and that uncertainty often weighs heavily on our hearts. With that in mind, we want to offer you a space for gathering, celebration, and care. We want to commemorate that, against all odds, we have managed to sow a place in the far north of Chile where human creative power can express itself through hope rather than destruction.
For ten years, we have continued walking obstinately as a small crowd. Together, we have built a community whose primary interest is to come together around filmmaking, dialogue, and the possibility of imagining other ways of inhabiting this world.
That is why we want to invite you to send us your films, the essential ingredient of this celebration through which we seek to continue nurturing diverse ways of feeling, thinking, and sharing life in a world that is wounded, yet still capable of healing.
We look forward to welcoming you with joy.
The AricaDoc Team
