Presentation

Each year, since 2010, Punto de Vista has been inviting three filmmakers to submit a project for a documentary essay film to be shot in Navarra. The X Films Project is named after the Navarra film company founded by Juan Huarte in 1963 with the idea of producing films that “have a unique artistic interest”, in which artists such as Jorge Oteiza, Néstor Basterretxea, Rafael Ruiz Balerdi and José Antonio Sistiaga, to name but a few, took their first steps in the world of filmmaking. Reviving this spirit of sponsorship, the festival aims to offer emerging filmmakers the opportunity to create a new project while, at the same time, bringing new voices from the non-fiction scene to Navarra.

In this edition, Daniela Delgado, Anna López and Ilan Serruya have been invited to present their proposals. This year, the panel of judges formed by Gloria Vilches, Ramiro Ledo and Marian Fernández will select one of the projects, which must be produced in the course of 2023 as a personal essay film, with a minimum duration of twenty minutes. The winning film will then be premiered at the next edition of Punto de Vista. 

What is more, this year features the premiere screening of Renacuajos, by Blanca Camell, the thirteenth film to win X Films. Likewise, the audience will get the chance to enjoy a session showing some of the previous works by this year's candidates.
