The Festival has a double value and is proposed as a meeting point between directors, authors and producers to develop future initiatives and the presentation and promotion of films of all nationalities, genres and lengths that address the themes of feelings.
The Feelings that have always been described in novels and leave the pages transporting the reader to different worlds between the pages of literature are the common thread of classic literary narratives but feelings are not only the fruit of literary imagination.
Describing feelings in film shoots is much more difficult but not impossible and in films where this happens masterpieces are born.
What we would like to see is the development of these films, their conception, creation and development.
Positive feelings such as love, admiration, respect or negative feelings such as hatred, aversion, indifference in cinema.
