We​ want to thank everyone who participated in the 1st Annual Madrid Film Festival. Whether you submitted a film, won an award or had the pleasure of watching the 27 films that were shown, we appreciate your enthusiastic response to this initial effort. We want next year's festival to continue to showcase local filmmakers and the incredible talent we have. 

 

We encourage everyone to consider creating a film for next year's festival. This year we received 44 entries ranging in length from 30 minutes to less than 3 minutes, so opportunity awaits for anyone interested. Start thinking and planning now!
