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).
Selection of the year’s best feature films, as yet unscreened in Spain, totally or partially produced in Latin America, either directed by filmmakers of Latin origin or set against a backdrop or theme of Latin communities in other parts of the world.
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.
The Jury of the Horizontes Award has the task of appraising these films and deciding the awards. Films in the Horizontes Selection which are the first or second works by their director also compete for the Youth Award, decided by a jury of students between the ages of 18 and 25 years.
