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.

1. ORGANISATION
The Salerno International Film Festival, with its registered office at Via Portacatena, 51 – 84121 Salerno (SA), tax code 80046160653, was founded in 1946 by CINECLUB SALERNO, and the Organising Committee (a non-profit organisation) is responsible for staging the annual editions.
2. OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSES
Since its inception, the Salerno Film Festival has distinguished itself as a competitive event for Italian and international productions, thereby fostering ongoing dialogue on developments in world cinema.
The Festival attributes an important social function to cinema, and its aim is to constantly adapt its approach in line with the evolution of technology and new ‘audiovisual’ media.
The Festival fulfils its original mission of promoting and fostering film literacy, in keeping with its tradition, with a particular focus on independent works and technical and artistic innovation.
3. PROGRAMME
The 80th edition of the Salerno International Film Festival will take place in the city of Salerno from 23 to 28 November 2026 at the Cine-Teatro Augusteo.
In addition to the competitions for the various film sections, the Festival also features film programmes, retrospectives and side events (exhibitions, conferences, round-table discussions, etc.) as a contribution to raising awareness of the history of Italian and international cinema.
On the closing night of 28 November 2026, prizes will be awarded to the winning films and honours bestowed upon prominent figures in the artistic, social and cultural spheres. The Awards Ceremony may also be split into two separate evenings: one dedicated to ‘Specialised Cinema’ (documentaries, cartoons, etc.) and another dedicated to feature-length films and various other awards.
The films will be screened at the Cine-Teatro Augusteo, with the schedule to be determined at the discretion of the Festival Management, subject to the date of submission and the standard film entry procedures.
Both the side events and the awards ceremony will be streamed on the Festival’s social media channels.
The theme of the festival will be “Transitions: Cinema that Regenerates the Future”.
The 2026 edition takes place against a global backdrop marked by profound transitions: climatic, energy-related, technological, social, economic and cultural. These transformations are changing the way communities inhabit their territories, create value, communicate, consume resources, perceive the future and construct collective imaginaries. In this context, cinema cannot merely record reality; it can become a language capable of anticipating, interpreting and questioning it, while making complex processes understandable and accessible to all. The ecological transition, in particular, does not concern only the environment in a technical sense, but implies a shift in the way we conceive of the relationship between humanity, technology, the economy and nature. For this reason, the Festival proposes a cultural interpretation of sustainability: not merely a reduction in environmental impact, but a transformation of our perspective, narratives and social practices. Cinema thus becomes a driver of awareness and a catalyst for new collective responsibilities.
3 bis. AUDIENCE IN THE THEATRE
Audiences attending screenings during the festival will have the opportunity to cast a rating vote for each film they watch (votes are cast on a scale of 1 to 5, with an arithmetic mean calculated). These votes will determine the winner of the Audience Award.
UNALOME FILM FESTIVAL
Against gender violence!
Competition notice
Organization
Unalome associtaion, wich offers socio-educational and recreational services in Valcamonica, promotes the first edition of Unalome film festival, for italian and foreign film makers about “gender violence”. The meaning of this competition is to raise public awarness about the topic in all of its aspects, such as support for families and socialization in contemporary society.
We also want to create a school section for forth and fifth grade. We invite this last grade, in particular, to involve students in every phase of the creation of a short movie. We think debate among younger students is important to understand their point of view about gender violence.
Unalome film festival’s first edition plans two sections
Film makers section
School section
The festival is a showcase of films in all genres by young emerging filmmakers.The cultural capital of India hosts numerous film festivals every year. Our team has taken into account the features of most film festivals. To present something new, we decided to place our primary focus on independent underknown filmmaking from all over the world. Besides, we realize that the boundaries of cinema have expanded significantly over the past two decades due to the digital "revolution.” Nowadays, one can shoot films with a smartphone, without using special equipment or being a professional filmmaker. Therefore, the cinema has become far more expressive and entered a new era of its development, uncovering all shades of life, all colours of culture and subcultures. We believe that the programme of Venus Brightest Star Film Festival gives a free hand to any way of artistic expression.
We welcome any experimental ways that create new film languages evolving the cinema!
The topic of the work will be the violence of gender, in any of its manifestations, its prevention and sensitization against it, being able to present documentaries and short films of plot fiction.
The jury will have special consideration for those works that address this issue by focusing on the youth world.
The Film Tracks Film Fest wants to be a meeting point between fans of filmic language, propose quality works.
A special prize will go to a short film about the MEDITERRANEAN.
We love Cinema and how we want to spread it.
