Festroia International Film Festival

The FESTROIA-International Film Festival is held every year in Setúbal (Costa Azul) in June,

Festroia is an independent organization recognized by the International Federation of Film Producers Association (IFFPA - FIAPF).

The Official Section (Competitive) only accept films from countries producing or co-producing up to thirty films per year.

The Festival presents full-length films which artistic quality should allow an assessment of the development in cinema production, which is not usually seen, in Portuguese commercial distribution and in the big international festivals.

The Festival Management invites also the films, which are screened out of competition (Informative Section). This Section will include retrospectives distinguished by their artistic or historical importance and deserving public recognition.
