PRESENTATION OF FESTIVAL

The International Imago Film Festival was born with the idea of ​​promoting cinema, especially independent cinema, by encouraging research and experimentation with cinematographic language.

The idea of ​​the festival was born from the meeting of IMAGO with the city of Civitella del Tronto, where the award-winning film "The right to happiness" by Claudio Rossi Massimi was made by IMAGO.

After the first two editions in the wonderful setting of Civitella del Tronto, the Festival has moved to the Municipality of Teramo with a broad cultural program, full of new features that go beyond national borders and that strengthens and highlights this fascinating bond.

The International Imago Film Festival will be all this and much more.
