FICIMAD seeks to discover and promote talented filmmakers from all over the world and present them to the public. It promotes the discussion and study of filmmaking.
FICIMAD also calls for experimental film and video work that explores language and/or literature whether it be oral, written, visual, or symbolic. This includes non-narrative work and the avant-garde. It strongly considers works that challenge traditional and current visual communication methods while continuing to function as a mode for exploring narrative and personal expression.
