Since 1987, Fipa is the festival for international audiovisual creation that defends different creative genres: drama, series, creative or investigative documentary, performing arts, transmedia and new talent.

6 days to meet professionals, directors, viewers and students while discovering the year’s best programs.

This festival is a platform for discovery and debate, a calendar highlight and annual meeting place for television professionals, but also for evermore members of the general public, with attendances increasing each year.

This unique festival is an interface between theatre, music and media. It will be held every two years, each time with a different focus. In 2010 the focus will be on music. Following the Motto "Music on Screen" filmmakers, media representatives, musicians, theatre people and directors as well as students and interested non-professionals will consider this complex subject in all its diversity in workshops, podium and panel discussions.
Internationsal Artists like Wim Wenders, Irmin Schmidt or the Catalonian performance group La Fura dels Baus will be our guests at this years Festival.
