WELCOME TO THE MADRID INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2016. Dear Filmmaker,
Firstly, congratulations and thank you for your continued support of all of our International Film Festivals over the past few years, we hope you have a wonderful time with us in Madrid and we look forward to meeting up with all of you! The next few months see’s a huge step forward for us as we will be opening our brand new Festival in Berlin in October and we continue to have such an amazing growth in entries from filmmakers from all over the World that it seemed a natural step in our progression.

With so many fantastic films being entered, a brand new Festival in Germany was a perfect choice for us; we’re very excited and proud to have this addition to our portfolio and as always, are truly staggered by the quality of work that we are so fortunate to see. Furthermore, we are as always, very grateful for the continued support of industry professionals, Neil McEwan, Ray Davies, Paul Eyres and Brad Blain who will once again be on hand in Madrid to offer excellent advice to both filmmakers and script writers. Also, my team will be only too happy to be of service whilst you are with us and I hope you enjoy your time and possibly join us in my other Festivals in Berlin, Milan, London & Nice. Good Luck! Carl Tooney President Madrid International Film Festival
