WE ARE ASFF
The Amsterdam Spanish Film Festival (ASFF) is the only festival in the Netherlands fully dedicated to Spanish spoken cinema, and one of the leading platforms in Europe in its field. With over a decade of trajectory, ASFF has established itself as a key cultural event that goes beyond film screenings. More than a festival, ASFF creates meaningful spaces for audiences to engage in
ASFF is an initiative of Sin Fin Cinema, founded by film curator and director Virginia Pablos, and operates through the ASFF Foundation, an non proffit organization which is dedicated to the organisation of cultural events, film programming, and the promotion of Spanish cinematic experiences in the Netherlands.
Over the years, ASFF has grown into a vital platform that reflects the evolution of Spanish cinema: from its strong social and political roots to its bold contemporary storytelling and formal innovation.
Mission
To create a dynamic and inclusive platform that celebrates and shares the richness of Spanish-language cinema in the Netherlands. Through a carefully curated programme, ASFF aims to inspire audiences, spark dialogue, and highlight the diversity and vitality of Spanish and Latin American filmmaking.
Vision
ASFF seeks to inspire Dutch audiences through innovative Spanish cinema while fostering cultural exchange and mutual understanding between communities. The festival envisions a vibrant, inclusive cultural space where film becomes a bridge between cultures and a catalyst for connection.
Recognition
ASFF is proudly endorsed by Her Majesty Queen Máxima of the Netherlands and Her Majesty Queen Letizia of Spain, who supported its mission to bridge cultures between both countries during its 10th anniversary edition in April 2024.
