Short Film and Alternative Cinema Festival to hit Benalmadena

This year the festival will be held between October 29 and November 5. 

The Councillor for Culture, E. Pablo Centella, together with the directors of the festival Jaime Noguera and Jose Ramon Martinez Verastegui, presented the poster of the 21st edition of the International Short Film and Alternative Film Festival of Benalmadena (FICCAB).

The Councillor for Culture confirmed: “We are counting down to the celebration of one of the most important events in the world of culture in Benalmadena. The FICCAB continues to grow year after year which is evidenced by the number of short films that have been submitted to the competition this year.”

“We have once again exceeded the figure of one thousand short films from the five continents.”

The councillor added: “This year the jury will be made up entirely of women, an added value in our fight for real and effective equality.”

“In addition, our film festival helps us to offer a tourist package that goes beyond sun and beach, and also brings us closer to our goal of making Benalmadena the cultural capital of the Costa del Sol.”
