Three months separate us from the 22nd edition of FEST, and while we work to bring you another memorable edition, we present what will be the official image of 2026! Rather than a static portrait, the figure emerges as a space in motion, hinting at internal struggle and resonating with historical memory.

Once again, we trusted the talent of Ricardo Riscas to bring our thoughts into an image that symbolizes an interpretation of the festival not only as a platform for emerging filmmakers, but as a critical territory where the image is simultaneously narrative and positioning. And we couldn’t be happier!

From June 20 to 28, Espinho will once again become the meeting place and discussion forum for the film industry, during a week of films, masterclasses, networking, and plenty of partying!
