The fourth Ibiza International Festival of Independent Film – Ibizacinefest proved it was in rude health when it unspooled from 31 January-9 February, with a huge audience turnout for its activities and screenings, all of which were completely free of charge. To celebrate this success, the team headed up by Xavi Herrero handed out an array of awards over the course of last weekend. On Sunday, this culminated in lead actor Ruscen Vidinliev and director Lachezar Avramov receiving hearty applause from the audience as they picked up the Award for Best Fiction Feature for their work on the Bulgarian-Japanese production A Picture with Yuki [+leggi anche:

by Spaniards Adán Aliaga and Alex Lora split the Jury Special Mention with the Chinese production Feelings to Tell, helmed by Wen Li.

In the innovative FEM-Cine section, which fosters gender equality and condemns the abuse of females by men, the 20-minute short film Fragmentos, a Spanish production directed by Mayte Carrasco, went home with the trophy. The movie shows how women who have been victims of sexual violence in Colombia have managed to forgive the perpetrators by channelling their anger into creating a work of art using the material that resulted from the melting down of the weapons handed in after the armed conflict that tormented the country for decades. A Special Mention of the Jury was picked up by the short film 16 de decembro by Galician director Álvaro Gago and by Watermelon Juice by Catalan helmer Irene Moray, which recently pocketed a Goya Award.

Cineuropa was invited to take part in the industry day focusing on the circulation, promotion and distribution of independent, alternative and arthouse film, which took place on Saturday 8 February. Here, debates were also held on the complexities and difficulties inherent in successfully making this type of cinema, with a particular emphasis placed on films created on the Balearic Islands.
