Welcome to Wellsboro Film Festival, where independent cinema meets small-town charm. Founded by collaborating filmmakers who first worked together at their boring corporate video jobs, Thomas Smith and Thomas Verdi want to help others bring their stories to the screen. Having attended many film festivals, they've learned that some festivals care about their filmmakers' experience, and others see them as numbers or dollar signs. That's why they're going the extra mile to make Wellsboro Film Festival not just about the films, but about the entire filmmaker experience. At Wellsboro Film Festival, every accepted filmmaker will enjoy two nights' lodging at the historic Penn Wells Hotel. All accepted films will screen at the Arcadia Theatre, located right next to the hotel. Wellsboro, PA, with its quaint Main Street, embodies the essence of small-town USA—literally—as it's served as the setting for the Hallmark movie Christmas Comes Twice and comes with its very own Grand Canyon. Join us in February 2025 for a celebration of indie cinema, community, and camaraderie in this picture-perfect mountainside town.

VI COLIFFE - COLiseum International Film Festival 2026
THE SIXTH EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL CELEBRATING WORKS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
IT HAS A DEEP INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION AND WAS CREATED WITH THE GOAL AND NEED TO PROMOTE INDEPENDENT CINEMA AND FIRST FILMS.
FESTIVAL ACTIVITIES
The sixth edition of the Festival defines itself as social, meaning its aim is to promote the aggregation of all the protagonists of independent cinema and debut works.
From August 24 to September 1, 2026, the COLiseum International Film Festival (COLIFFE) will be organized online through two web channels, one Italian and one international, where the finalist works will be broadcast in full HD or 4K for online public voting.
Screenings will be held 24 hours a day online in full HD and 4K on Coliffe TV and Coliffe TV International.
From September 17 to 25, the best works from the 9 competitions will be screened in 4K.
On September 26, 2026, the gala evening will take place with the presentation of the 51 awards.
All activities will take place in Sardinia island.
The Festival is organized by the Pianeta Empatia Social Promotion Association.
The association promotes and pursues exclusively the goal of promoting human, civil, cultural, and social solidarity, which are grounded in the principles of the Italian Constitution.
The association focuses its attention specifically and primarily on:
The development of the human personality in all its expressions and the removal of obstacles that impede the implementation of the principles of freedom, equality, equal social dignity, and equal opportunity, promoting the right to health, social protection, education, culture, training, and sport, as well as the enhancement of professional skills and abilities; and the promotion of welcome and hospitality for individuals, adults or minors, Italian or foreign, with disabilities, marginalization, and/or social vulnerability, including in conjunction with the proposed public or private entities.
To promote the leisure time of disabled and marginalized individuals, through educational and community initiatives of a cultural, sports-recreational, and social nature aimed at preventing hardship and/or deviance (e.g., festivals, shows, stays, weekly meetings at the headquarters, Sunday outings, peace education, ecological and environmental protection initiatives, etc.).
The association also provides, based on additional availability, the following initiatives, listed by way of example:
• study and research services, management of information, multimedia, and social spaces, including in prisons and detention centers for adults and minors;
• support and initiatives for any cultural activity (exhibitions, conferences, and events), music videos, theater, and cinema, physical expression and gymnastics, amateur and recreational sports activities, nutrition education, and the provision of food and beverages, including for a fee or contribution;
• promotion and implementation of any cultural activity (exhibitions, conferences, and events), music videos, theater, and cinema, physical expression and gymnastics, amateur and recreational sports activities, nutrition education, and the provision of food and beverages, including for a fee or contribution;
• Community-based hospitality, including non-hotel accommodations, for social tourism purposes, aimed at socially marginalized individuals and their families and/or associations.
The PIANETA EMPATIA Association, committed to developing proposals that promote cultural opportunities in the region, sees cinema as a vehicle through which a region can initiate a process of cultural growth capable of triggering development mechanisms in conjunction with the region's activities.
In this case, the region is the splendid reality of Sardinia and its beaches, places rich in natural oases, ancient ruins, and breathtaking views, as well as a generous food and wine offering.
The festival's goal is to foster international competitiveness through attractiveness, a theme that concerns regions not only for what they are but also for how they can be developed and communicated. A region is social value, value of exchange, and value of experiences, but also cultural value and economic value.
And the theme of exchange between economy, experience, and culture is what drove us to focus on these territories, which, located in this splendid geographical area, can spread the culture of cinema as a privileged meeting place for the histories of distant countries and peoples, fostering the rapprochement of different cultures.
The Coliseum International Film Festival is a fundamental resource for the film industry as it not only contributes significantly to the cultural, economic, and social development of the region in which it is held, but also constitutes an essential link in the film industry ecosystem.
The Coliseum International Film Festival has multiple missions:
• it promotes awareness and dissemination of international cinema in all its forms as art, entertainment, and industry, in a spirit of freedom, equality, and equal opportunity;
• it offers filmmakers broader recognition for their work, spreading word of mouth
among critics, film buffs, and audiences;
• it discovers new talent and helps structure emerging production areas;
• it creates business opportunities for films that have not yet secured agreements for commercial exploitation or for specific territories.
COLIFFE can be considered a GREEN FESTIVAL in many ways, from Sustainable Mobility (the locations are always located near subway and/or train stops, which are recommended to guests, along with electric vehicles and car sharing) to Sustainable Energy Consumption (in-person locations, the goal is to reduce energy consumption, reducing lighting to the bare minimum and setting the heating system to the lowest level for comfort), and from Printing Materials (digital formats are preferred for communication, information, and promotion of the event, or printed press materials).
From Waste Management (separate waste collection at numerous collection points and easily recognizable and visible bins) to Guest Management (only digital train and subway tickets are offered, and hotels are certified by Travelife or Green Globe), from Food Sustainability (local DOCG wines, water and soft drinks on tap, no food waste, local seasonal products, washable tableware, and certified tissue paper napkins) to Environmental Culture and Social Sustainability (sponsors who share and support the festival's sustainability values and suppliers with a certified Environmental Management System, selected locations free of architectural barriers and accessible to people with disabilities and special needs, promotion of gender equality and the full participation of all individuals, and valorization of the local area), all the way to Training and Communication (staff adequately trained in environmental sustainability and the conduct policies adopted by management, and communication of the festival's environmental and eco-sustainable policies).
The festival invites all participants, in every capacity and role, to pay particular attention to adopting green behaviors.
STATEMENT OF REASONS
The "Locos por el Cine" Association announces its Second Short Film Competition, aimed at promoting and introducing new authors to the audiovisual sector.
Our purpose is to stimulate and foster cinematic creativity as a form of cultural expression.
