In 2017 we organize a festival that showed case 10 feature films and 23 shorts in competition, this time with Ibero-American artists, promoting the creation of short films in local schools in Miami and other countries such as Spain and Mexico. As the festival grew, we managed to capture the spotlight of different press media that recognized us the importance of supporting Ibero-American cinema in the United States.

2016
In 2016, five Cuban-American filmmakers were invited to an event where their short films - between 5 and 10 minutes in length -were screened with an audience of 250 people. Being able to give them that window of diffusion and the opportunity to showcase their talent pave the way to a significant motivation that had an impact on the growth and development of new artists who had the opportunity to continue their path within the film industry.
