The FanCine Málaga, the Fantastic Film Festival (FANCINE) of the University of Málaga began its career in 1990 as an initiative of the Vicerrectorado de Cultura of University of Málaga. It started as a fantastic films trade fair.

In its 18 years of existence, it has evolved thanks to the warm welcome of Málaga society and its institutions. The university community and the young people from Málaga are looking forward to their annual date in November, to meet fear, fantasy, fiction and several other feelings.
