Visionär Film Fest has programmed a total of six Catalan productions for this year’s edition.

Last summer, the productions Las niñas, by Pilar Palomero, and the short films Daucus Carota, by Carola Linares, and Marleni, no Marlen, by Carmen Aumedes were programmed in two sessions of Catalan cinema in collaboration with FeldKino. The festival is also working on its expansion towards other European cities and was presented for the first time in Madrid, with a selection of the best works presented during the last years in Berlin, which included Panteres, by Erika Sánchez Marco.
