A happening with the best films produced worldwide, displayed outdoors in a two months lasting time frame. All this decorated with round tables, exhibitions and training programmes, among other cultural activities that are mainly held during the last week of August. It is an initiative by the Tourism Board of the Islantilla Association, in cooperation with many public and private entities (Town Councils of Lepe and Isla Cristina, Turismo Andaluz and Junta de Andalucía, Provincial Council of Huelva, International University of Andalusia, Huelva University...). Moreover, Islantilla Cinefórum is fully backed by the tourist sector of the area and especially by the hotels of Islantilla, Lepe and Isla Cristina.
The activities of Islantilla Cinefórum are held in July and August, when projections during the moonlit night are enjoyable because of the heat during the day. In the last week of August a special programme of films, round tables, exhibitions, etc. is planned, as well as a Closing Ceremony during which the Jury hands out the Luna Awards of Islantilla.
