About SandDance Film Festival
Our Mission
To celebrate storytelling, creativity and independent voices in cinema. SandDance Shorts champions originality, offering filmmakers a unique opportunity to share their work and inspire audiences to explore new perspectives.
SandDance was created by filmmakers for filmmakers! We exist to simply celebrate film and the people with vision.
A live event screening will take place, Q&A and an awards ceremony at the beautiful Playa Juana Beach Bar in Mojacar.
We encourage international filmmakers to participate! So, if you have a compelling film, we invite you to be a part of this annual showcase!
Wishing you best of luck and we look forward to sharing this journey with you!
