The 23rd Málaga Film Festival took place from 21 to 30 August 2020 in Málaga, Andalusia, Spain. It was originally set to run 13–22 March 2020, but it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In November 2019, the festival presented the official poster for the 23rd edition designed by Pedro Cabañas.[1] The official selection included 23 titles (4 of them in non-competitive slots).[2][3] Because of the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the event was postponed barely three days before its intended opening on 13 March 2020.[4] It eventually took place in August 2020 and featured special security measures and reduced activities.[5] Rosa's Wedding opened the official selection.[6] The Heist of the Century closed the festival in a non-competitive screening.[7]
