Our seventh edition of Ibizacinefest, as the new qualifying festival for the 2023 Goya Awards for the fiction and documentary short film categories, has been a resounding success with the public, the press and films released in Spain. With 10 days of projections on the island of Ibiza and reaching all of Spain with our online programming through FILMIN.

We have once again fulfilled our two parallel objectives of bringing to our islands the most courageous and cryptic auteur cinema, and at the same time, as a markedly territorial festival, quality independent cinema that will reach commercial theaters on the peninsula, but never in Ibiza. .
