The Italian Short Film Centre at the 25th Festival del Cinema Europeo
EMIDIO GRECO AWARD – XII EDITION
Lecce | November, 9-16, 2024
The Italian Short Film Centre is, once again this year, a partner of the Lecce European Film Festival. The festival, directed by Alberto La Monica, is an open window on European production, on contemporary and historical Italian cinema, and, through the ‘Puglia Show’ section, curated by Luigi La Monica, on the rich local production of short films. Italian Short Film Center has a dual role in the festival:
- The jury of the “Puglia Show” section will select the “Centro Nazionale del Cortometraggio” award, which includes the inclusion of the winning short film in the Centre’s programs;
- For the twelfth time, the “Emidio Greco” award will be presented by the Italian Short Film Center in agreement with the Greco family, in memory of the late director, a great friend of the festival.
Ten films from 2023-2024 by Italian directors under the age of 35, chosen by the Italian Short Film Center, will compete for the “Emidio Greco” award, which will be screened during the festival:
- A Mosca Cieca di Mino Capuano
- Caro Mostro di Stefano P. Testa
- La linea del terminatore di Gabriele Biasi
- Mefite di Beatrice Surano
- Miranda’s Mind di Maddalena Crespi
- Nero Argento di Francesco Manzato
