The CINEGATE Film Festival & Crystal Aurora Awards is a unique Film event for you to Network & to discover future trends.

In October, we will hold our annual CFF&CAA Gala-Event where we will SCREEN the selected films in the OFFICIAL SELECTION, which have a competitive character, for PRESS, FILMMAKERS and general admitted AUDIENCE.

We offer an atmosphere for the film enthusiast to interact with filmmakers as well as filmmakers being able to interact and
network with each other and industry professionals.

For this reason, to provide a platform for appreciative discussion of their work, throughout the time of the FILM SCREENING, SPECIAL EVENTS and VIP AFTER PARTIES will take place.

The festivities will culminate in the announcement of the winners of 2020 CFF&CAA at the glamorous red carpet AWARDS CEREMONY honoring great movie ideas, productions and film & television concepts.

The CFF&CAA was established to showcasing and celebrating the best INDEPENDENT FILMS from already established filmmakers as well as great work from NEW UPCOMING TALENT and artist FROM AROUND THE WORLD and to assisting in the building of a shared artistic experience.

Our principal mission is to bring worthy filmmakers to a wider audience.

We focus on finding diverse independent films with strong characters and storylines, from filmmakers who share their visions in a powerful, creative and entertaining way and encourage all filmmakers to submit their films, regardless of ETHNICITY, RELIGION or WORLDVIEW.

Special attention will be paid to STUDENTS' WORKS which provides significant discounts.

The committee welcome, select and judge all films equally and with great respect and consideration.

Some of the winner films will also be screened at other international film festivals.
