Asociación Cinematográfica Ajayu (Ajayu Film Association) in co-production with Sapa Inti Studio invites national and international filmmakers to participate in the 10th Ajayu International Animation Festiva,l to be held from November 26 to 29, 2025, in Puno, Peru.
Now celebrating ten years, Ajayu has become one of Peru’s leading festivals dedicated exclusively to animated cinema, as well as a vital space for the development, circulation and visibility of animated works from the southern Andean territories. Marking this milestone, the festival reaffirms its commitment to cultural decentralization by promoting a diverse, accessible, and identity-driven audiovisual industry.
This year’s central theme is “Peace Narratives”, a curatorial focus for part of the programming and will be highlighted in a special section in the general program. However, this theme is not a submission requirement, as the call welcomes animated works on any topic.
Ajayu continues to be a space for gathering, exhibition, and reflection on animation as an artistic language and a tool for social transformation. The selected works will be part of the festival’s official showcase and will actively contribute to a curatorial vision that celebrates ten years of legacy.
