Celebrating nine years of the festival, the Fashion Film Festival presents itself for another edition with the theme ‘Show us your point of view’. A clear challenge to the competitors’ creativity: unique perspectives are sought, either in the storytelling or the technique they use. Applications are open until the 20th of October.
International Fashion Films, Independent Author, Alive Mobile, Brand, Technical Textiles, Home Textiles, and, in premiere, Films related to the Mediterranean are the categories on display.
“In 2014, the first edition launched with the signature ‘Looking for Fashion Films’ since at the time they were a rare communication tool in Portugal”, recalls the organization in a statement. Eight years have passed, and the FFF is more solid and international than ever, thanks to partnerships with other important international festivals: “La Lolla International Fashion Film Festival, Berlin FFF, Madrid FFF, Copenhagen FFF, Barcelona FFF, and in the last edition, the Buenos Aires International Fashion Film Festival”, the organization adds.
The goal of rewarding the best works in the fashion and audiovisual field has thus been fully achieved, with very positive feedback and with its own identity: even with the pandemic, in 2020, 178 films competed for the Guimarães Fashion Film Festival, in 2021 films from countries such as Bolivia, Mexico, United Kingdom, USA, Brazil, and Italy were submitted.
“The creative community of Portugal and the world involved: advertisers, film producers, directors, cinematographers, stylists, designers, textile brands, fashion, and film design students join in every year”, the organization concludes.
