Concorso Ufficiale
della 4° Edizione 2023

Il Giorno 31 Agosto è la giornata dell’Apertura del Festival alla presenza delle maestranze.
All’Arena La Rocca alle ore 21.00 verrà proiettato il FILM inglese
WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD, in originale con sottotitoli in inglese, che fu girato a San Gimignano nel 1990, con il Premio Oscar JUDY DAVIS, HELEN MIRREN, HELENA BONHAM CARTER e lo stesso GIOVANNI GUIDELLI.
Un Film che declina il tema del VIAGGIO e del Cammino, così come inteso dagli Inglesi: il viaggio alla scoperta dell’Italia e delle sue bellezze, così come ai tempi del Grand Tour e dei poeti romantici inglesi.

Il Giorno 1 Agosto sarà la serata dedicata alle proiezioni dei Cortometraggi in Concorso: Storie provenienti quest’anno dagli USA, dall’Australia, Svizzera, Inghilterra, Federazione Russa, Armenia, Turchia, ecc… nonché un’importante rappresentativa italiana.
