The Social Machinery Film Festival is a
"Road Map Film Festival"
with different locations in Italy and around Europe for each event:
1) Premiere Film Selection
2) Semi Finalist Film Selection
3) Finalist Film Selection
4) Winner Award Celebration
5) Hall of Fame (This section is only for all awarded films)
6) Video On Demand Streaming Platform (A selection of both awarded and non awarded films submitted)
During this "Road Map Film Festival" many other public screenings in various nice cities and locations are included. We need many months (like 4/6 months) to select the best creative talented visionary audiovisual change makers (from the launch of the Premiere Screening Party to Winner Award Celebration Party) .
We get our time (nobody is on a rush in our team) to discover not only the real story behind the film, but also who is the filmmaker. So the film festival team follows a scheduled selection process with detailed communication techniques, with the main focus not only to better enhance the creative talent of each filmmaker, but also to help the filmmaker launch the best positive message to a worldwide audience.
And obviously all awarded films are published in the special online section called the "Hall of Fame".
This is a long lasting section where the profile of the filmmaker is promoted with the winner awarded film, during the special event called "The Dream Machine".
The Social Machinery Film Festival is focused on the promotion of alternative audiovisual film productions across the globe.
"This is the power of an "open source social project", where people with diverse backgrounds,
from many different parts of the world, collaborate together in a self built community to analyse, study, change and improve our society"
