The Festival of European and Mediterranean Film presents a selection of contemporary cinema productions from all over Europe and the surrounding Mediterranean regions. Based at the Slovenian coast, the festival's primary aim is to present quality – but less media endorsed – movies and documentaries to the audiences from the coastal region. The first two editions were set in the Kolosej Koper cinemas, but the festival has then moved to the charming town of Piran and is now held at the Tartini Theatre and the Mediadom Pyrhani.

The festival was launched in 2010 by the film distribution company Fivia/Cenex and the FEMF Institute. Later, the Portorož Auditorium also joined in as a co-producer.


Festival sections and prizes

The main part of the programme consists from the competitive section, where the over-all award has, for example, been given to the Palestinia film Omar (directed by Hany Abu-Assadan), the Italian drama Via Castellana Bandiera (done by Emme Dante) and the French feature La guerre est déclarée, of which the author is Valérie Donzelli.

Another important section presents new pieces from national cinematographies, with some of the countries in focus up until now being Italy, France and Sweden. Than there is the section that is specifically aimed towards the pre-teen audiences and a section that presents directorial débuts, out of which a winner is also chosen. Some other awards, like the one for the contribution to the development of the European cinema, are also handed out. In 2015, an additional section was introduced, which featured only films done by female directors.

The awarded films are chosen by an international jury, which has featured prominent movie professionals like Lenka Kny, Pavel Jech, Brendan Walsh, Anamaria Percavassi, and Ubald Trnokoczy. Besides the awards for the best movie, director and début, there is also the Vilko Filač award, which is given for the best cinematography. Its name alludes to the renowned Slovenian (but internationally active) cinematographer Vilko Filač, whose short retrospective was also screened in the first festival edition.

Workshops, lectures and guests

There are usually also lectures and discussions on different topics like violence (prepared together with University of Primorska), human rights and immigration, to discussions on movies (like the one that featured the movie directors Serge Frydmann, Ali Ozgenturk and Karpo Godina (Rdeči Boogie).
