The Festival on the Cinema was born in 2020, when many actors and film directors were left unemployed or suspended from their work in the arts due to the crisis caused by the pandemic. That's when the project began, interviewing them via Zoom to learn a little about their activities, with the intention of supporting them during this difficult time and giving them the opportunity to showcase their work while we were all locked down during the crisis. Sharing something positive was always something that kept us hopeful that everything would return to normal.
