The works brought together in this edition explore different ways of relating to our present and to the marks it leaves behind. Emerging from diverse geographies and artistic languages, these proposals raise questions about what we remember, what we choose to preserve, and the possibilities of building new networks through shared experience. In this way, Cine(Y)Digital is conceived as a space for slowing down the gaze and reclaiming the potential of images as devices for thought, memory, and encounter.

On this occasion, we welcome Sobre Ruedas, an initiative based in Manizales committed to audiovisual creation and circulation throughout Colombia’s Coffee Region. Through its work, it has established itself as an active participant in the cultural scene of our city. Its participation expands the possibilities for encounters between audiovisual practices, territories, and communities, strengthening the networks that run throughout this edition of the Festival.

The Cine(Y)Digital program is part of the 25th International Image Festival and brings together a selection of works from 14 countries: Germany, Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Cuba, Spain, Italy, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the Dominican Republic. Through this geographical and aesthetic diversity, the section offers a journey across different ways of sensing, thinking about, and constructing images in the present.
