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, around Saint George's Day.
The first festival edition took place 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]
