FiGa Films is a sales agency and distribution company specialized in finding the best contemporary films from Latin and Ibero-America.
A new wave of progressive filmmakers is breaking the binds of traditional filmmaking. Fed up with the same stories being told the same ways, these young Latino filmmakers are now dictating what is new and what is hot and we are their outlet.
Our goal is to nourish emerging filmmakers, from finding producing partners to consultation through the post-production phase, from representation on the festival circuit to the ultimate sale and release of their films.
FiGa Films is there.
Our goal is to create lasting alliances; to launch careers and watch them bloom. We are determined to show every work we select to the broadest possible audience, whether through theatrical and non-theatrical release, DVD and cable syndication, or VOD and internet broadcast.
We don’t believe in conformity.
We reject the obvious and predictable.
We need to be transported and blown away.
We are proud to be the underdog.
We are The Home of the New Latin Cinema.

FiGa Films es una distribuidora y agencia de ventas de películas contemporanía de Ibero y Latino-América.
Hoy existe un sinnúmero de cineastas progresivos que están rompiendo los lasos del cine tradicional. Cansados de los mismos cuentos contados de la misma manera, estos jóvenes cineastas latinos son los que están dictando lo nuevo y lo moderno y nosotros somos sus padrinos.
Nuestra meta es nutrir a estos cineastas, desde ayudarlos a encontrar productores hasta llegar a la ultima fase de post producción, y desde representación en los festivales hasta llegar hacer público sus películas.
FiGa Films estamos aquí.
Nuestra meta es crear alianzas con ellos, seguir sus carreras y ver su crecimiento y desarrollo. FiGa Films se compromete a exhibir cada obra a la audiencia más amplia posible sea por medio de estrenos en teatros, o directamente a DVD, estaciones de cable, televisión pública, o por el Internet.
No creemos en la conformidad.
Rechazamos lo obvio y lo previsto.
Buscamos ser transportados e ilusionados.
Tenemos el orgullo de querer servirles.
Somos El hogar del nuevo cine latino.

FiGa Films é uma companhia de distribuição e agentes de vendas de seletos filmes Ibero-Americanos, baseada em Los Angeles.
Há uma onda de cineastas desconhecidos, de culturas diversas, cada um com pontos de vista distintos. Estes artistas estão contando estórias complexas e de temas universais, sobre uma região cheia de tradição e cultura. Os novos cineastas Latinos estão ditando o que está acontecendo no mercado internacional, e nós somos o seu porta-voz.
Nosso objetivo é cultivar novos cineastas, ajudar-lhes na fase de pos-produção, e assim, criar alianças ao longo de suas carreiras. Nós queremos seguir seus caminhos, prestar-lhes atenção e deixa-los florescer.
FiGa Films chegou para ficar.
Os filmes selecionados e distribuídos pela FiGa serão expostos às mais vastas audiências possíveis, seja através de distribuição teatral, via DVD ou às estações de TV a cabo, educativas, e na Internet de banda larga.
Nós queremos os filmes que os grandes estúdios não querem.
Nós não estamos interessados no óbvio.
Nós queremos os pequenos cineastas julgados demasiado experimentais.
Filmes que nos transportam e nos fundem.
Temos orgulho das nossas desvantagens.
Somos A Nova Casa do Cinema Latino.
