Cyprus Film Days IFF

 

‘Cyprus Film Days' is the most celebrated annual international Film Festival that takes place in Cyprus. It is organized by the Cultural Services of the Ministry of Education and Culture and the RIALTO theatre. The 9th edition of the festival will take place from the 8th until the 17th of April in Limassol at the RIALTO Theatre and in Nicosia at the Pantheon Art Cinema. Continuing the tradition of previous years, the festival will host some of the best and most important films of the year that have been critically acclaimed internationally.

The showcasing of Cinematic excellence is at the heart of Cyprus Film Days since its first edition in 2003. Therefore, the artistic committee is looking for independent works that frame the diversity of local cultures and present innovative approaches to subject matters that can be addressed to an international audience.

An international Jury made up of leading figures of the international film industry and whose names will be announced at a later date will award the following prizes:

  • - Best Film Award accompanied by the amount of 7,000 Euros
  • - 2nd Best Film Award accompanied by the amount of 3.000 Euros.

An exciting year lies ahead for the festival with the addition of the International Competition Section for feature-length films with the aim of discovering new talents and new stories from all over the world.

The International Film Festival “Cyprus Film Days” is the official international film festival of Cyprus. It is co-organised by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Cyprus and the Rialto Theatre.

The selection of films and programming of screenings and parallel events programme is undertaken by a three-member Artistic Committee, appointed by the Ministry of Education and Culture and the Rialto Theatre.

The Festival’s main objectives are to: contribute to the development, promotion and mobility of the art of film making in Cyprus and the wider area; screen the work of filmmakers from across the world and to introduce their work to the Cyprus public;
to serve as a hub for films from the three neighbouring continents of Cyprus.

For 2011, the festival includes the sections below:

Glocal Images – International Competition Section: Nine (9) feature-length films participate in this section. Films originating from the neighbouring continents of Cyprus and other parts of the world are chosen by the artistic committee, with an emphasis on films, which promote cinema as an art form and a tool for intercultural dialogue. Moreover, Glocal Images seeks to attract films highlighting the diverse “colours” of local filmmaking in their country of origin and drawing on themes and styles of contemporary international filmmaking. Each film in this section is screened once in Limassol and once in Nicosia.

Viewfinder – A Close-up of Contemporary International Cinema: Nine (9) feature-length films will be selected to participate in this section. This section hosts films which have been distinguished at major international film festivals during the festival year and are selected by the Artistic Committee.

The Festival also includes special screenings, thematic sections and tributes to the work of distinguished filmmakers from across the world

Parallel events with workshops and master classes.

The Festival is annual and takes place in Limassol (RIALTO Theatre) and Nicosia (PANTHEON Art Cinema) simultaneously.

The tenth edition of the festival will be held between 20 and 29 April 2012.
