The Claqueta Awards were born in 2011 to promote the efforts of new talents and students from film schools around the world, and to promote film culture in the city of Vilanova i la Geltrú (Barcelona).
It is a non-profit event that has the support of different public institutions, social entities and private sponsors.
The Claqueta awards, not only exhibit, also perform various events such as meetings with artists and students, academic conferences, debates, among others. It is an interesting way to approach and connect the works to the public.
The Claqueta Awards have been selecting the best cinema pieces around the world for 9 years to exhibit at the festival, promoting the development of cinema with a clear international character.
