What Makes this event different?
BSF understands that some video and short film blur the lines of typical film festival categories. We enthusiastically encourage experimental and non-traditional formats. The stories of girls, women and female makers are underrepresented in film festivals. We are encouraging submissions from anyone who identifies as female, non-binary, and/or anyone telling stories about women and girls. BSF 2017 will screen on October 1st and 2nd, 2017 in Zumzeig Cine, Barcelona. Zumzeig Cine is an independent, non-profit organisation, and the first cooperative cinema in Catalonia. BSF is run by a non-profit organisation that supports a culture of diversity, equality and non-discrimination.
