FOTOGENIA 7, INTERNATIONAL CINEPOETRY & DIVERGENT NARRATIVES
FESTIVAL, promotes a space with an alternative conception of films, a
celebration of experimentation and avant-garde framework, the love of
curiosity and research of the Seventh Art. Everyone is invited, taking
into consideration the disruptive nature of the selected works.

FOTOGENIA is a Film Festival held in the heart and diverse areas of
Mexico City that celebrates cinema itself, experimentation with its
nature, formats, genres, narrative, projection spaces, and all the
freedom to explore the audiovisual image without restriction. It joins
the Festivals of this type around the world such as the Film & Video
Poetry Symposium which takes place in Moscow, Los Angeles, and New
York, Rencontres Internationales held in Paris and Berlin, the
Thuringian International Fim Festival in Weimar, Germany, and Le FIFA,
Festival International du Film Sur l'Art in Montreal, Canada.

​If you are an audiovisual maker who doesn't find your place, voice,
and vision within the traditional film festivals and you are interested
in provoking the cinematographic image through the exploration of its
frontiers and limits, in order to converse with the viewers in
innovative and critical ways to ignite a confrontation between reality
and cinematic phenomenon, this is your place to exhibit your passion. We
receive filmpoetry, video art, film-diary, film essays, avant-garde
feature films, & every kind of experimentation in cinema, animation,
music video, fashion films, and poetic documentary.

​And if you are a spectator avid for finding new film proposals,
personal movies, and experimental works of cinema, this is your place to
watch.

​We welcome you to experience films in another way!
