NowOrNever European Film Festival aims to be a showcase for the European cinema and be meeting point for professionals in the film sector, providing the opportunity for European filmmakers to showcase their works and compete for prizes in our different sections.

Our main objective is to consolidate this event for professionals and movie lovers and receive European productions to bring the vision of the filmmakers to the audience, and make known to the audience all kinds of films creating a new film culture in different cities. We promote European feature films and short films of any kind; cult, independent, author films, animation, indie, commercial films, etc. For this also we have attractive prizes of distribution.

Annually we choose a European city where celebrate festivals, creating a concept of cultural mobility that allows the approach of European cinema at all levels. This year, we will not just be receiving Eurpoean films but films from the international community as well.
