L'Alternativa, 28Th Barcelona Independent Film Festival

This year the Barcelona Independent Film Festival, l'Alternativa, reaches its 28th edition. For 28 years we've been offering filmgoers and professionals a unique opportunity to discover and enjoy screenings and activities that value creative freedom, diversity, innovation, commitment and thought-provoking reflection. L'Alternativa has three competition sections in l'Alternativa Official: International Feature Films, International Short Films and Spanish Films. L'Alternativa Parallel presents tributes, premieres, little-known films, work by new directors and a programme of family screenings. And l'Alternativa Hall offers a rich, varied programme of free screenings, performances and debates in the CCCB Hall. Alongside the screenings, l'Alternativa Activities includes masterclasses, debates with creators, roundtables, a symposium, creative workshops for children and grownups and Film Schools activities. In addition, l'Alternativa Professionals will be holding the 12th Professional Symposium and the 9th Mentoring Projects.
