CFF is the first outdoors film festival of its kind in Lebanon. The festival, which was launched in 2009 by “Laboratoire D’art”, has become an annual short film event which celebrates and promotes local and international short films as an independent form of art in a non-competitive public event, away from competition, prizes and entrance fees.
At eighteen, Cabriolet reaches a moment of transition—a point where “DREAMS” are no longer distant ideas but real possibilities. Like anyone coming of age, the festival carries the desire to explore, the courage to imagine freely, and the honesty of facing the unknown.
Eighteen is the moment when dreams stop being whispered secrets and become declarations of identity. It is a time charged with energy, restlessness, and hope. A time when we question everything, chase what feels impossible, and begin to understand who we might become.
Cabriolet, now eighteen, is dreaming with open eyes:
dreaming of new voices, new visions, new horizons;
dreaming of films that challenge, provoke, comfort, and awaken;
dreaming of stories that connect us across skies, streets, and cultures.
As the festival steps into adulthood, its dreams are bolder, more vivid, and more urgent—shaped by the past yet reaching fearlessly toward the future.
With this theme, we invite filmmakers from around the world to share films that explore what it means to dream: to imagine, to desire, to question, to resist, to rebuild. Whether your dream is tender or turbulent, personal or universal, realistic or fantastical, we want to experience it through your lens.
Join us on June 5, 6, and 7, 2026, to showcase films that challenge, inspire, and empower.
Let’s celebrate the beauty of possibility and the freedom to follow one’s own vision.

2026 Festival Schedule: The San Francisco International New Concept Film Festival will be the Virtual Film Festival. The schedule remains:
October 25, 2026------November 1, 2026
The People's Film Festival, a dynamic three-day event that celebrates the “Voice of the People” through the power of film, art, music and technology. This year our festival takes place from May 28, 2026 to May 30, 2026 in Harlem, NY, a thriving and vibrant community, rich in cultural history with an ultimate synergy of great music, literature, arts, and entertainment also collectively known as The Harlem Renaissance.
Now entering its 15th year, TPFF stands as a powerful cultural and economic engine in Harlem, New York—committed to preserving Harlem’s rich artistic legacy while boldly shaping its future. Contrary to the notion that the Harlem Renaissance is a closed chapter in history, TPFF asserts that Harlem is still a vibrant epicenter of creativity, innovation, and cultural expression. The festival’s mission is rooted in the belief that the spirit of the Harlem Renaissance lives on—not only in the legacy of the past but in the voices, visions, and talents of today’s emerging artists, filmmakers, musicians, and technologists.
TPFF was founded in 2012 serving as a vital platform to support and showcase a new generation of independent filmmakers, producers and creatives by providing venues, access to opportunities, exposure, and resources that allow them to thrive. Our mission is to not only inspire future creatives and innovators but to also expose audiences of all ages to new tools and technologies for storytelling. Through a suite of programs and community partnerships which includes: The Tech People Expo |The People’s Marketplace | MENTAL Talkback Series, TPFF brings together filmmakers, artists, technologists, educators, and entrepreneurs who are shaping the next phase of Harlem’s renaissance—one that is inclusive, future-facing, and rooted in the belief of freedom of speech and media access for all. TPFF challenges the outdated narrative that Harlem’s cultural glory is a thing of the past. Instead, it reclaims and redefines Harlem’s legacy as living history in motion.
The People’s Film Festival is an initiative of The People’s Media, Music & Arts Foundation (TPMMAF) - a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation. We use our platform to promote awareness of independent film, technology, media, music, and art across the globe while encouraging those, particularly in the Harlem New York area, to develop a greater appreciation and understanding of cultural diversity in media.
This event is open to everyone.

VI COLIFFE - COLiseum International Film Festival 2026
THE SIXTH EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL CELEBRATING WORKS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
IT HAS A DEEP INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION AND WAS CREATED WITH THE GOAL AND NEED TO PROMOTE INDEPENDENT CINEMA AND FIRST FILMS.
FESTIVAL ACTIVITIES
The sixth edition of the Festival defines itself as social, meaning its aim is to promote the aggregation of all the protagonists of independent cinema and debut works.
From August 24 to September 1, 2026, the COLiseum International Film Festival (COLIFFE) will be organized online through two web channels, one Italian and one international, where the finalist works will be broadcast in full HD or 4K for online public voting.
Screenings will be held 24 hours a day online in full HD and 4K on Coliffe TV and Coliffe TV International.
From September 17 to 25, the best works from the 9 competitions will be screened in 4K.
On September 26, 2026, the gala evening will take place with the presentation of the 51 awards.
All activities will take place in Sardinia island.
The Festival is organized by the Pianeta Empatia Social Promotion Association.
The association promotes and pursues exclusively the goal of promoting human, civil, cultural, and social solidarity, which are grounded in the principles of the Italian Constitution.
The association focuses its attention specifically and primarily on:
The development of the human personality in all its expressions and the removal of obstacles that impede the implementation of the principles of freedom, equality, equal social dignity, and equal opportunity, promoting the right to health, social protection, education, culture, training, and sport, as well as the enhancement of professional skills and abilities; and the promotion of welcome and hospitality for individuals, adults or minors, Italian or foreign, with disabilities, marginalization, and/or social vulnerability, including in conjunction with the proposed public or private entities.
To promote the leisure time of disabled and marginalized individuals, through educational and community initiatives of a cultural, sports-recreational, and social nature aimed at preventing hardship and/or deviance (e.g., festivals, shows, stays, weekly meetings at the headquarters, Sunday outings, peace education, ecological and environmental protection initiatives, etc.).
The association also provides, based on additional availability, the following initiatives, listed by way of example:
• study and research services, management of information, multimedia, and social spaces, including in prisons and detention centers for adults and minors;
• support and initiatives for any cultural activity (exhibitions, conferences, and events), music videos, theater, and cinema, physical expression and gymnastics, amateur and recreational sports activities, nutrition education, and the provision of food and beverages, including for a fee or contribution;
• promotion and implementation of any cultural activity (exhibitions, conferences, and events), music videos, theater, and cinema, physical expression and gymnastics, amateur and recreational sports activities, nutrition education, and the provision of food and beverages, including for a fee or contribution;
• Community-based hospitality, including non-hotel accommodations, for social tourism purposes, aimed at socially marginalized individuals and their families and/or associations.
The PIANETA EMPATIA Association, committed to developing proposals that promote cultural opportunities in the region, sees cinema as a vehicle through which a region can initiate a process of cultural growth capable of triggering development mechanisms in conjunction with the region's activities.
In this case, the region is the splendid reality of Sardinia and its beaches, places rich in natural oases, ancient ruins, and breathtaking views, as well as a generous food and wine offering.
The festival's goal is to foster international competitiveness through attractiveness, a theme that concerns regions not only for what they are but also for how they can be developed and communicated. A region is social value, value of exchange, and value of experiences, but also cultural value and economic value.
And the theme of exchange between economy, experience, and culture is what drove us to focus on these territories, which, located in this splendid geographical area, can spread the culture of cinema as a privileged meeting place for the histories of distant countries and peoples, fostering the rapprochement of different cultures.
The Coliseum International Film Festival is a fundamental resource for the film industry as it not only contributes significantly to the cultural, economic, and social development of the region in which it is held, but also constitutes an essential link in the film industry ecosystem.
The Coliseum International Film Festival has multiple missions:
• it promotes awareness and dissemination of international cinema in all its forms as art, entertainment, and industry, in a spirit of freedom, equality, and equal opportunity;
• it offers filmmakers broader recognition for their work, spreading word of mouth
among critics, film buffs, and audiences;
• it discovers new talent and helps structure emerging production areas;
• it creates business opportunities for films that have not yet secured agreements for commercial exploitation or for specific territories.
COLIFFE can be considered a GREEN FESTIVAL in many ways, from Sustainable Mobility (the locations are always located near subway and/or train stops, which are recommended to guests, along with electric vehicles and car sharing) to Sustainable Energy Consumption (in-person locations, the goal is to reduce energy consumption, reducing lighting to the bare minimum and setting the heating system to the lowest level for comfort), and from Printing Materials (digital formats are preferred for communication, information, and promotion of the event, or printed press materials).
From Waste Management (separate waste collection at numerous collection points and easily recognizable and visible bins) to Guest Management (only digital train and subway tickets are offered, and hotels are certified by Travelife or Green Globe), from Food Sustainability (local DOCG wines, water and soft drinks on tap, no food waste, local seasonal products, washable tableware, and certified tissue paper napkins) to Environmental Culture and Social Sustainability (sponsors who share and support the festival's sustainability values and suppliers with a certified Environmental Management System, selected locations free of architectural barriers and accessible to people with disabilities and special needs, promotion of gender equality and the full participation of all individuals, and valorization of the local area), all the way to Training and Communication (staff adequately trained in environmental sustainability and the conduct policies adopted by management, and communication of the festival's environmental and eco-sustainable policies).
The festival invites all participants, in every capacity and role, to pay particular attention to adopting green behaviors.
El Grito is the first and only fantasy an horror film festival in Venezuela.
This event seeks to celebrate fear and showcase the narrative visions of both emerging and established filmmakers, whose stories reveal the darkest aspects of the human condition.
Over the past eight years, it has served as a disruptive platform in the country’s periphery—the state of Táchira—where filmmakers, producers, and fantasy film enthusiasts have come together to reflect, enjoy, and learn. El Grito is part of the Latin American Alliance of Fantasy Film Festivals (FANTLATAM), the Venezuelan Film Festival and Showcase Circuit (CIFEST), and the Ibero-American Network of Film Festivals (REDIBEROFEST).
We invite feature films and short films from around the world—spanning fantasy, horror, sci-fi, thriller, suspense, and related subgenres— in any narrative format (fiction, documentary, animation, or experimental) to participate in our 7th edition.
