We know that the wonderful experience of carrying out the filming of a cinematographic work leaves many satisfactions to all involved. However, once finished there are no suitable opportunities or accessible places to show the final product.

We gave ourselves the task of offering that opportunity, in a dignified place and without many requirements to participate.

The Guacamole Film Festival is defined as a short film festival, in the beginning, with the possibility of growing according to the acceptance of the participants and the attending public.

As its name suggests, guacamole Film Festival is a mixture of different flavors and textures, with a little bit of spice -for its Latino origin- which aims to encompass different cultures and achieve a multi-ethnic event in essence.

Sabemos que la maravillosa experiencia de llevar a cabo la filmación de un trabajo cinematográfico deja muchas satisfacciones a todos los involucrados. Sin embargo, una vez terminado no existen las oportunidades adecuadas o lugares accesibles para mostrar el producto final.

Nos dimos a la tarea de ofrecer esa oportunidad , en un lugar digno y sin muchos requisitos para participar.

El Guacamole Film Festival se define como un festival de cortometrajes, en un inicio, con la posibilidad de crecer segun la aceptación de los participantes y del público asistente.

Como su nombre lo sugiere, Guacamole Film Festival es una mezcla de diferentes sabores y texturas, con un poco de picante - por su origen latino- que pretende abarcar diferentes culturas y lograr un evento multiétnico en escencia.

    Apart from being selected, I didn't get any communication from them. I wrote to ask about the event before adding this review to get them a chance and never get a reply. Being a fee paying, entrance paying festival, it seems like a joke. I'm really annoyed with them!

  • Thanks for including our movie "No Comment" at the festival. However, we don't have any information what screenings there were, nor a program. Communication is rather weak. It would be nice to get some information!
