FIDBA International Documentary Film Festival

Logo of FIDBA International Documentary Film Festival

In recent decades, and at one time to the emergence of new technologies that have ended up scanning most of the processes of the film, the documentary has known a notorious and systematic growth around the world. In our country, and for more than one decade, a production before linked almost exclusively to fiction has been swelling their ranks with new topics, new approaches, new geographies, new dilemmas.

It is in this context that FIDBA is proposed as the 1st. International Film Festival dedicated to this genre which films with the same fans - as long as we believe that the forms and the doings of the documentary film are different from those of the fiction - may meet and dialogue among them and with the public. If the documentary is a meeting point for the FIDBA, it is [...]

“Cinema that Interrupts Silences”

The 5th Puno Film Festival – Hanan Cinema is organized and promoted by the Cultural Association Puno Audiovisual, an initiative that seeks to strengthen and diversify film production in the Puno region and throughout the country, while establishing bonds with sister nations of South and Central America.

In this fifth edition, the festival is held under the theme “Cinema that Interrupts Silences”, an invitation to recognize cinema as a space of expression that questions absences, reveals denied memories, and gives voice to territories, bodies, and communities historically silenced.

From the south of Peru, Hanan Cinema reaffirms its commitment to a cinema that listens, dialogues, and transforms.

The festival will take place from December 6 to [...]

Among the peaks that stand out against the sky and the deep silence of the valleys that preserve ancient stories, “Alte Visioni│Erto Film Festival” is born. It 's not just a film festival but a bridge of light and images thrown between the past and the future, between the memory and resilience of a territory unique in the world: Erto and Casso.

The purpose is twofold and deeply rooted in this land.

First, to honor the memory and learn from it. Erto and Casso are places that bear the scars of Vajont, an eternal reminder of the fragile balance between man and the environment. However, the mountains have also been the scene of epic historical events—think of the trenches of the First and Second World Wars, or the transit routes and natural fortresses that have shaped entire [...]

Organizing a festival dedicated to the theme of emigration in Meduno means giving voice to
a wealth of stories, emotions, and memories that still inhabit the area today.

Through short films and documentaries from different parts of the world, the festival aims to build a bridge between the past and the present, between those who left and those who returned or arrived, between the roots and new identities that intertwine in border areas.

It's the desire to rediscover the memory of Friulian emigration, made up of departures, sacrifices, and hopes, and at the same time to reflect on contemporary migrations, which continue to transform communities and the way we look at the world.

In a natural and human context of great intensity, the festival becomes a moment of encounter and [...]
