MADEIRA FILM FESTIVAL 2017

The Madeira Film Festival - MFF, is a is non-competitive event ‘about and around’ Nature, whose mission is to develop an international awareness towards Madeira’s ‘living relict’, the Laurissilva forest (an endemic species of trees found on Madeira – the largest surviving area of laurel forest and believed to be 90% primary forest), recognized by Unesco as a World Natural Heritage Site, and therefore a high contribution for Madeira’s promotion across borders.

The MFF’s 6th edition takes place between April 17 and 23. Creative Madeira is the institution in charge of its organization, introducing this year two national premières and one world première.

MFF also presents various events which complement the week, including lectures, workshops, musical concerts and excursions to the Laurissilva Forest.
