The Talayotic Menorca documentary increases its international echo by participating in two prestigious archeology film festivals this fall: the International Archeology Film Festival (MFAF), which will be held from November 10 to 12 in Split, Croatia; and at the XXII International Archaeological Film Festival of Bidasoa (FICAB), from November 14 to 19 in Irún, Basque Country.
Talayotic Menorca, an insular cyclopean odyssey will compete for one of the three prizes awarded by the expert jury of the seventh edition of the MFAF, and for the public prize. Manu Balaguer, director of the documentary, will represent the Consell Insular de Menorca in Croatia. This biannual international documentary film festival on archaeology, cultural and historical heritage aims to disseminate the world's cultural and archaeological heritage and sensitize a wider audience about its protection.
At the FICAB in Irún, the Talayotic Menorca documentary will compete for four prizes: the Grand Prize of the Festival, the Special Audience Prize, the Arkeolan prize for popular science, and the Educational Section prize. This festival seeks to bring archeology closer to society through the dissemination of films based on the results of archaeological research.
Talayotic Menorca, an insular cyclopean odyssey was presented for the first time outside of Menorca during the Firenze Archeofilm, the international archaeology, art and environment film festival in Florence, Italy.
