The Barcelona-Sant Jordi International Film Festival, or simply BCN Film Fest, is a film festival held annually in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It usually takes place in April.
The first festival edition took off on 21 April 2017 at Barcelona's Cines Verdi.[1] The first two editions were directed by José María Aresté.[2] In November 2018, RNE journalist Conxita Casanovas became the festival's artistic director.[3][4] For the fourth edition in 2020, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the festival's traditional April dates were rescheduled to 25 June – 2 July.[5]
