Since 2004, the International Social Film Festival in Catalunya (CLAM) has promoted and showcased the values of solidarity, human rights and civil rights through the art of cinema.

The festival’s aim is to focus on high-quality film committed to real life, serving as a point of reflection and debate on social issues.Numerous film screenings focused on solidarity (both short films and feature films) are complemented by parallel activities from a range artistic and cultural disciplines, including lectures, conferences, exhibitions, professional master-classes, theater performances and concerts.

This year's program has not been released, but last year’s films included Silje Evensmo Jacobsen’s A New Kind of Wilderness (Norway, 2024), an intimate and soulful portrait of love, life, and growing up; the romantic tragicomedy My Favorite Cake (Iran, Germany, 2024)  directed by Maryam Moghaddam and Behtash Sanaeeha; Andrea Arnold's Bird (UK, 2024) a tender, striking and extraordinarily surprising coming-of-age fable; Mohammad Rasoulof’s The Seed of the Sacred Fig (Iran, Germany, France, 2024) a political drama shot entirely in secret with real footage of student protests following the death of Mahsa Amini in 2022; and Joshua Oppenheimer’s apocalyptic musical film The End (USA, 2024).
