About the Montreal international Smartphone Film Fest

The Montreal International Smartphone Film Fest is an international event dedicated to filmmakers from around the world who create movies using the device we all carry in our pockets every day: the smartphone.

Whether you are a first-time filmmaker, a student, or an experienced director, the festival provides a platform to showcase your work, connect with fellow creators, and inspire audiences.

Great stories don't depend on expensive equipment—they begin with imagination, passion, and the courage to create.

AUDIOVISUAL OPEN CALL
CINE CALLEJERO 2026
