Archeocinema Tiriolo:
Opening up archaeological assets to the local area, making them more attractive by hosting cinematographic activities, cultural activities, events, music, theatre, virtual installations. All of this, of course, in full respect of the sites and monuments. Thinking of parks and archaeological sites not only as an area dedicated to the fruition of archeology, but as an attractive place to host initiatives, programs, festivals with a strong cultural and identity impact. This can be a new challenge for a region like Calabria, rich in ancient remains, which needs to work to promote its culture and image.
The event takes place annually, is open to all producers, directors and film and television authors, in the field of archaeological, historical, paleontological, anthropological research and in any case whose purpose is the protection and enhancement of cultural heritage, with particular attention to museums, superintendencies, and all bodies managing archaeological sites.
The festival is open to short films and documentaries, no longer than 30 minutes, in any language, provided they are presented with Italian subtitles. The participating works will be selected by a committee appointed jointly by the organizers of the event.
THE PROGRAM
Archaeological cinema days 7-8-9 September 2023
The idea is to put public awareness of the value of cultural heritage at the heart of the Festival. The choice of Tiriolo is due to its historical archaeological vocation, testified by the current excavations in the Giammartino area, whose inauguration has rekindled interest in the history of this ancient center of the Province of Catanzaro.

Biophilia is a concept based on respect and love for life and living beings.
Our essence is hidden in the earth, inside everything converges, an infinite cycle that reveals being: sprouting, intertwining, flourishing, and later, being a seed that fell to germinate again. We celebrate the connection of man with the earth, and how from this link, we are able to perceive and build our surroundings, recognize ourselves in the gaze of the other, or ignore a little about our being.
The festival activities will take place in the month of November, we will carry out face-to-face and online activities creating links in three states of Mexico: Mexico City, the State of Mexico and Oaxaca.
Complementario a las exhibiciones y programaciones se impartirán talleres y habrá charlas y master class con especialistas en la cinematografía, estas actividades se realizarán de manera online y presencial (si las condiciones de pandemia lo permite), y están planeadas para los asistentes y el público interesado, buscando impulsar a nuevos autores. Así como actividades especiales para los autores de los cortometrajes ganadores de cada categoría y las menciones honoríficas.

It was born from the Homonimo project carried out in 2018 TO MAKE A FILM SCHOOL, a space where different Latin American audiovisual groups came together to lay the foundations to create a film school in Solano/Quilmes.
Currently, this initial experience and through the festival could give shape to the ARROYO SCHOOL, which brings together 40 boys, girls and young people from the neighborhoods on one side of the Las Piedras stream.
Everything raised by this festival is intended to continue with the community film experience and the future construction of the first community film school in Argentina.
All genres, formats and durations are accepted. A selection will be made for the best organization and programming of the Festival. We will take into account formal experimentation and aesthetic risk

The FENAVID International Film Festival is held annually in the city of Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Organized by the Audiovisual Foundation (FUNDAV), the Festival has become the most important film event in Bolivia and one of the most relevant in Latin America.
Since its first version, carried out in 2001, more than 10,000 audiovisual works from 30 countries have been presented at this meeting, which has transcended the borders of Bolivia and America.

FENAVID always has first-rate guests. The event was attended by internationally renowned figures such as Celso Franco, protagonist of "7 boxes", Marisol Correa, Colombian actress, Alexandre Rodrigues and Leandro Firmino de Hora (protagonists of the acclaimed Brazilian film "Ciudad de Dios"), the Argentine producer Vanessa Ragone (winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Film in 2010), Bolivian directors Marcos Loayza and Rodrigo Bellot and Argentine actress Aymará Rovera, to name a few.
Beyond glamor and film screenings, FENAVID is a macro meeting where producers, directors, actors, specialists and a whole multitude of people passionate about cinema converge.
During the days of its realization, the Festival has a series of parallel activities, such as children's film shows, video clip competition, workshops, talks, colloquia and debates.
One of the most anticipated events of FENAVID is the Santa Cruz 100X100 Film Production Meeting. It consists of bringing together 25 emerging film talents in Latin America. The chosen ones travel to Santa Cruz de la Sierra and, during the development of the festival, have the mission of producing a short film in 100 hours.
