Festival Internacional de Cine de California - FICC
California Interntional Film Festival - CIFF
(Spanish & english)
El FICC es un festival completamente independiente, dedicado a promover el nuevo cine independiente internacional, tanto de jóvenes creadores como de veteranos, con especial atención a la producción del cine creado en California, en ambos lados de la frontera. Queremos aportar nuestro granito de arena a promover y dar visibilidad a nuevos proyectos, ya sea en idioma español, inglés o chicano.
El festival se lleva a cabo en 4 centros culturales colaboradores, ubicados en California, dos del lado mexicano (Tijuana) y dos del lado de Estados Unidos, (San Diego y Los Angeles).
La celebración de apertura del Festival se realizará cada 13 de mayo en Tijuana, México, con la entrega del premio a mejor película, la cual proyectaremos, entregando el premio al director. En posteriores eventos habrá proyección de las películas ganadoras, finalistas y algunas de la selección oficial, que tendrán lugar en los centros culturales colaboradores, en distintas fechas repartidas desde mayo hasta Agosto, siendo cada evento distinto a los demás y de entrada libre. Las fechas serán anunciadas en nuestras redes sociales.

The FICC is a completely independent festival dedicated to promoting new international independent cinema, from both emerging and established filmmakers, with a special focus on films produced in California, on both sides of the border. We want to do our part to promote and give visibility to new projects, whether in Spanish, English, or Chicano.
The festival takes place in four partner cultural centers located in California: two on the Mexican side (Tijuana) and two on the U.S. side (San Diego and Los Angeles).
The Festival's opening celebration will take place on May 13th in Tijuana, Mexico, with the presentation of the Best Film award, which we will screen, and the award will be given to the director.
