film festival with annual live screenings

Where Filmmakers Connect

Get ready for our most ambitious season yet. From February 6th to 7th, 2027, the Barcelona Indie Festival takes over the historic Cine Maldà for an exclusive two-day live cinematic experience.

Walk the red carpet, showcase your film to a passionate audience, and gain invaluable insights through live masterclasses led by our elite, OSCAR®️-nominated and Berlinale-winning jury.

Beyond the screen, our curated networking dinners and tapas events provide the perfect high-energy environment for directors, writers, and industry insiders to pitch projects and forge career-defining connections. The weekend culminates in our spectacular Gala Award Ceremony, where top filmmakers will be recognized for their craft and compete for the new Trophy alongside our 1,000 USD cash prize.

“There’s something very pure about an independent film because it’s often made with love and passion, not profit, as the primary goal.”
