It is the oldest Basque film festival held in Lekeitio. Since 1978 it has become a meeting point for Basque cinema and a reference point for the Basque audiovisual. This year’s edition, however, aims to approach the view of the new generations.

According to the organizers, these include “courageous and innovative work”.

The jury, composed of filmmaker Ainara Elgoibar, actor Martxelo Rubio and bertsolari Nerea Ibarzabal, will be in charge of selecting the winning films to the best director and screenplay. The EiTB Ikuslea public prize will be awarded by popular vote, and the Benito Ansola Prize will be awarded to authors born from the year 2000.
On October 19, coinciding with the Official Section Competition, the Basque Film Gaze Awards will be held in Ikusgarri. This year’s edition will reward Itziar Ituño for his “special contribution” to the Basque audiovisual world. “We want to acknowledge a universal actor who has started his career in Euskera,” said the members of the organization in an interview at ETB.
