Locarno International Film Festival

Hi.

Marcello, the Locarno Film Festival has been always a place where cinema is not only showcased, but questioned, challenged and also reimagined and step in.

that's what you are the manager of, extends this philosophy beyond the screen, transforming reflection into dialogue and action.

So we had these four tables of experts which were gathering this year to discuss the future of the industry.

Yes.

And this was it.

This was Step In Sessions, straight from the Locarno Pro days, hosted by A.C. Coppens, produced by Locarno Film Festival, Locarno Pro.

Step In is organized with the support of Eurimage and Arts3, in partnership with The Catalysts, and in collaboration with Europa Cinema, Europa Distribution, Europa International and B-Play.

He does such a good voice performance on top of his acting performance and voice performances are so much more difficult than people think they are to be able to read And like without your face come across like super compelling is, is not an easy task.

I've started to run through screeners for Locarno Film Festival.

And I went through one that like does the Goodfellas narration for like for its own main character.

And it just does not work at all.

The director's name is Idrissa Uedrago.

And yeah, this restoration, I believe, premiered just recently at the Locarno Film Festival.

I think it was restored for that premiere because I think the Locarno people had some input or some involvement in the restoration.

But it's a lovely movie.

And when I made my very first film, Drifting States, it was a mixture of documentary, fiction, reportage, cinema.

And it won in Locarno Film Festival.

And nobody knew what Locarno was in Quebec.

So my label as an intellectual filmmaker was...

Film director Uta Beria has accused Georgia's National Film Center of withholding part of the funding awarded to his film Teargas, which depicts protests in Tbilisi.

He also alleged that the agency later tried to prevent the film from premiering at the Locarno Film Festival.

The centre has disputed the allegations.

Brick structures and ceramic vessels have been discovered during rehabilitation works on Rustaveli Avenue in central Tbilisi.
