FILM FESTIVAL WITHIN THE CINEMA
The stories behind the movies.
11 – 20 June 2026
Trujillo, Arequipa, Lima.
The “Cinema Within Cinema” Festival aims to go beyond simply exhibiting films: it seeks to create a space for knowledge and reflection on cinema as a practice, a record, and an experience, strengthening the links between creation, research, and audience.
We believe that Peru needs to produce more audiovisual works that forge a memory of its film heritage.
Claudio Cordero – Director y Fundador
“I’m delighted to share some excellent news from Peru: ‘Cinema Within Cinema’ is a new festival focused on documentaries about film. 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.”
