Valdivia International Film Festival
The Valdivia International Film Festival started as a very successful international film exhibition released in 1993 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Cine-Club of the Universidad Austral de Chile. A competition was included the following year, labeled as "Valdivia Cine & Video". That event became a milestone to cultural activity in southern Chile, promising at that time to become the greatest film event in the country. The early versions of the festival were oriented to ecological issues. From that point the characteristic trophy award emerged: the Pudu . In 2001 the feature film competition category started, becoming the Festival into the most important film event in Chile.
The 14th edition of the annual Valdivia International Film Festival is open for film competition entries. This year's festival will take place from October 5th to 10th , 2007
