More than three years ago, Savage Cinema was born to bring adventure and action sports movies to the San Sebastian Film Festival. This edition marks a turning point in its trajectory: the section no longer is a new project – it evolved to an entity in its own right, outstanding for its efforts to bring the latest action sports and adventure productions to the general public – in cinemas and in the streets.
In its history, Savage Cinema, encompassed a total of 16 Feature Films from well-known production companies like Matchstick Productions, Mercenary Production, Red Bull Media House, Sender Films, Sherpas Cinema and Teton Gravity Research. The films were presented at more than 30 screenings attended by big-name moviemakers, such as Andrew Kidman, Bruce and Dana Brown, Jason Baffa, Peter Mortimer, and a number of athletes including Stephanie Gilmore, Jeremy Jones, Travis Rice David Lama and Robbie Maddison.
The San Sebastian Film Festival wants to thank all participants for their faith in the section and invites them, alongside with filmmakers with projects in development, to present their latest films related to sport and adventure at this year’s Savage Cinema. Use the opportunity to submit your work to Savage Cinema until July 16th. Entries beyond that deadline cannot be accepted.
Savage Cinema showcases the most ambitious titles and offers them not only to the general public but also to film enthusiasts and members of the audiovisual market, present at the Festival. It gives the opportunity to share tales of great adventure and passion with directors, producers and distributors, emphasising the state of the genre and the advantages of choosing cinema as the platform for launching.
