Z365" or "Festival all year round" is the new strategic point of the Festival in which converge investigation, accompaniment and development of new talents (Ikusmira Berriak, Nest); training and cinematic knowledge transfer (Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola, Zinemaldia + Plus, Filmmakers' dialogue); and investigation, disclosure and cinematic thought (Z70 project, Thought and Discussion and Research and publications).
Centuries ago, the Christmas Genie’s Forum decided to banish the genie Monopolish for having tried to hog all of the children in the world and become the One and Only Christmas Genie. Monopolish holes up among humans as he devises his evil plan: to turn all of the genies into adverts. After a number of successful trial runs, he’s ready to make the final strike and self-proclaim himself the One and Only Genie. But the genies have a surprise for him too: Pixi Post, a young elf who will become the saviour of Christmas.
