Blog: Film festivals

The FICC is one of the pioneering festivals in Ecuador that has been consolidated throughout more than two decades of history. During different editions, our event received the visit of renowned international film personalities such as Laurent Cantet, Isaki Lacuesta, Goran Paskaljevic and Eduardo Noriega, among many others.

The 2024 Festival will have three competitive sections: International Feature Film Competition (for works of more than 40 minutes of any theme, genre and style), International Short Film Competition and our new Dark Zone competition, dedicated to horror and fantasy cinema. Outside of competition we have the section called "FREE", focused on human rights films (including topics such as ecology and feminism) and a panorama of contemporary Latin American cinema.

The Cuenca International Film Festival 2024 will take place from September 18 to 22 in the city of Santa Ana de los Cuatro Ríos de Cuenca, Ecuador.
