Handwritten letters become source of inspiration for original short films produced by filmmakers from all over the world. This is Movieletters’ project: a unique mix between letter writing and film making that, throughout the years, has given birth to wonderful works of art.

For the 2018 edition of the Movieletters’ competition, film directors from around the world are invited to make short films translating into cinematic language the words contained in the letter written by Lo Stato Sociale: http://movieletters.com/contest2018/the-letter/.
The text of the letter, downloadable in different languages visiting http://movieletters.com, must appear either wholly or partially (simple quotes are also allowed) within the short film, in the way that the author deems most appropriate: voice-over, lettering motion, opening and closing credits, etc.

A dedicated jury will decide on the short film finalists and the winner.

Miglior Movieletter
Miglior fotografia
Miglior colonna sonora
Miglior cortometraggio Under 21
