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).
The San Sebastián International Film Festival grants the Horizontes Award, aimed at increasing knowledge of feature films produced totally or partially in Latin America, directed by filmmakers of Latin origin, set around or dealing with Latin communities in the rest of the world.
Eligible for this award are all of the feature films selected to form part of Horizontes Latinos, which have neither been previously presented at other Spanish Festivals nor commercially released in Spain.
All of the films in the Horizontes Latinos section compete for the Horizontes Award, coming with 35,000 euros (gross), 10,000 of which go to the main producer of the film and 25,000 to its distributor in Spain.
