The International Festival “Cinema Within Cinema” (FECIDECI) will hold its first edition from June 11 to 20, 2026, with activities taking place across various venues in Peru.
This new cinematic event proposes a unique space dedicated entirely to films that reflect on cinema itself: its history, its creators, its audiences, and its power of representation.
The festival is conceived as a meeting point for filmmakers, researchers, students, critics, and lovers of the seventh art, and aims to foster dialogue on how cinema looks at itself, remembers itself, and reinvents itself.
Over the course of a week, screenings, talks, and masterclasses will be presented, all with free admission for attendees.
“I’m pleased to share some excellent news from Peru: ‘Cinema Within Cinema’ is a new festival focused on documentaries about film-related topics. Its production team is passionate about the stories behind movies, and I’m sure it will soon become an exciting meeting point for filmmakers from all over the world. — Alexandre O. Philippe, director of documentaries about cinema.”
