AS FILM FESTIVAL (AsFF) is the first international film and visual art festival managed by people with Asperger Syndrome. It was born as a follow-up of a wider program, started up by Not Equal Association in 2008, and based on the idea of using cinema as a tool for social inclusion. AsFF is unique because it is not a festival about autism, but a film festival made by people with autism. For this reason (this is our claim) “it is equal to the others festivals, but different”.
AS FILM FESTIVAL (AsFF) è il primo festival di cinema ed arti visive realizzato con la partecipazione attiva di persone che si riconoscono nella condizione autistica. Nato come follow-up di un programma in più fasi avviato dall'associazione Not Equal a partire dal 2008 e fondato sull'uso del cinema come strumento di aggregazione ed inclusione sociale, AsFF è un progetto unico nel suo genere: non un festival sull'autismo, ma un festival di cinema vero e proprio, fatto anche da persone autistiche. Ecco perchè, come recita il claim, è un festival uguale agli altri, però diverso.
The annual film festival TFF is held in Minsk, Republic of Belarus.
The festival’s aim is watching interesting movies, discussing them, giving and getting the prizes and having a nice autumn evening.
