Blog: Film festivals

The International Animal and Environmental Film Festival (FICAA) of Mexico City welcomes you to its 6th Edition, where, as every year, we accept films from all five continents.

Our mission at the Festival is to promote values, causes, and activist struggles through Art, opening various windows of opportunity to showcase the work of talented filmmakers. Throughout the year, we host a variety of cultural events, including Film Debates in partnership with the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (National Polytechnic Institute), Mobile Cinema, and collaborations with government spaces that open their doors for this dissemination.

Winners who accept the terms will have their films featured for one month on IMCINE’s platform “Nuestro Cine MX,” granting them nationwide exposure.

The three themes for this year are:

ANIMAL
ENVIRONMENTAL
FEMINIST CINEMA

We will accept:

Animations
Short Films
Feature Films
Documentaries
Microfilms
Music Videos

As a festival dedicated to raising awareness about Animal and Environmental issues, with this year’s invited cause being "Feminist Cinema," all projects will receive a participation laurel recognizing the art and effort involved, even if they are not part of the final showcase. Additionally, the Official Selection will receive an Official Selection laurel and a diploma sent via email.

Final winners will receive the FICAA 2025 trophy, along with digital laurels and a diploma.

The awards ceremony will take place in December, where guests from various countries and regions of Mexico will gather to collect their statuettes.
