During the second half of September, Girona becomes a meeting point for creators and film lovers thanks to the Girona Film Festival, an event that over five days champions emerging talent and works with a critical, human and creative perspective.
With more than three decades of history, the festival has achieved significant international recognition, ranking in the Top 10 on FilmFreeway, which confirms its relevance within the independent film festival circuit.
Cinema, talent and city: this is how the Girona Film Festival is experienced
The Girona Film Festival was created with the aim of giving a voice to filmmakers who tell stories with substance, sensitivity and critical thinking, and over the years it has established itself as a platform for discovering new talent.
Its programme brings together short films, documentaries and auteur cinema from different countries, and over five days the screenings, meetings and activities are spread across various venues in the city centre. This allows visitors to enjoy the festival while exploring Girona at a relaxed pace, combining film sessions with walks through the Barri Vell, cultural visits and moments of rest on terraces and in squares, in the special atmosphere of late summer.
Hotel Carlemany, comfort just steps from the festival
Attending the Girona Film Festival is even more enjoyable when you can move around without rushing or long journeys. From Hotel Carlemany, located in the city centre, it is possible to walk to the main festival venues and return easily between screenings.
The hotel offers a serene setting in which to relax, with spacious rooms, welcoming communal areas and restaurants where you can enjoy dinner comfortably without leaving the accommodation.
