Latin America. TVCortos, the 24/7 HD television channel dedicated to short films, collaborates with the cable operator DirecTV in its Faciuni festival (International University Academic Film Festival) dedicated to helping students with their audiovisual careers.
The signal makes a selection of the best short films produced by the students participating in the festival in the special "Best in Fest Faciuni" and a special broadcast of "El Pitch Faciuni" in which 4 students competed for the financing of a new short film.
