Celebrated since 1997 in the frame of the Cinema Festival of San Sebastián, the Day of Basque Cinema is a tribute to the film creation in the Basque Country.
This event, organised by IBAIA and the Cinema Festival of San Sebastián, also has the collaboration of EITB, EAB Association of Basque Actors, Culture department of the Basque Government, Basque film library and the Newspaper Berria
The Day of Basque Cinema presents a day dedicated to the promotion and exhibition of the last Basque productions. They are showed in the cinema “Principes”, where works from different genres can be seen: animation, fiction, documentaries, short films and some important contribution from the Basque Film Library.
But, the Day of Basque Cinema is also a meeting day for experts in this area, where they give three awards: IBAIA award, which pays tribute to production and/or audiovisual initiative; and AMALUR award, for important people in this area, which this year AMALUR awards will be for the musician and composer Alberto Iglesias; and finally Berria award, given to the best short film made in Basque language.
