About the Mediterranean Film Festival of Tetouan
The FCMT renews its main activities and continues to innovate approaches to the promotion of the seventh art. Therefore, the Festival Foundation works to encourage young people to get involved during its screenings, debates, round tables and workshops for the construction and strengthening of modern and civic values, which will lead to a more prosperous society.
This 29th edition of the Festival has also included the addition of a new residency for students from art and film schools in Morocco. The aim of all these sections is to help young creators from Mediterranean countries to make their projects a reality and launch themselves into film as a career option.
This activity is subsidised by the Junta de Andalucía, within the framework of the subsidy granted by the Consejería de la Presidencia, Interior, Diálogo Social y Simplificación Administrativa (Regional Ministry of the Presidency, Interior, Social Dialogue and Administrative Simplification).
