The festival, which aims at becoming a brand of Timișoara, has partners and two prizes totaling 2,500 EUR, but some additional funding would help it to invite four more guests. The campaign hopes to raise 2,000 EUR / 9,000 RON in 33 days.

The 4th edition of Ceau, Cinema! will take place in Timișoara and in Gottlob (the first village in Romania with a renovated movie theater) from 20 July to 23 July 2017.

In 2016 the festival trophy went to Life is a Trumpet (Propeler Film) by Croatian director Antonio Nuić, while the Audience Award went to These Daughters of Mine (Kalejdoskop Film Studio) by the Polish director Kinga Debska.
