The Santiago International Film Festival ("Santiago Festival Internacional de Cine"), also known as SANFIC, is a film festival that launched in 2005. As its name suggests, the festival takes place in Santiago, Chile.

Along with the well-known Valdivia, SANFIC has become one of the most prestigious film festivals of Chile and South America.

Competition

There are two main competitions at SANFIC: the Chilean Cinema Competition, and an International Competition, each featuring nine shortlisted films. There is also a Local Talent competition for local directors and producers, dedicated to short films, with 18 shortlisted works.

The judging panel and jury are made up of international and Chilean experts from the film industry.

10th Anniversary edition

SANFIC 2014 (the 10th edition) took place between the 21 and 26 of October, and screened more than 90 titles from 30 countries, some of which had won prizes at the world’s most prestigious film festivals (Cannes, Berlin, Venice and Sundance, among others).
