La Poesia che si vede is an international competition for poetry films based in Ancona, Italy. It is organized by Associazione Nie Wiem and it’s the product of the collaboration between two important festivals: La Punta della Lingua International Poetry Festival and Corto Dorico Film Festival.

La Poesia che si vede aims to explore the world of international poetry film and its authors. The underlying mission of the competition rests in the challenge of researching, promoting and supporting new artistic gazes, poetics, and visions. From kinetic text to sound text, from visual text to cine-poetry, up to the filmed performance, poetry film for La Poesia che si vede is total poetry, without discrimination of genre or format.

The Franco Scataglini Prize, dedicated to the poet who, in the last century, was able to project Ancona into the centre of the world of Italian poetry for his formal and visionary ability (not separated from his attention to painting), will be awarded by a jury of film and poetry experts.

Among all the short films received, a dedicated and qualified Artistic Committee will select a limited number of finalist films which will be presented during a special evening event, scheduled to take place by the end of June 2024 within the programme of La Punta della Lingua International Poetry Festival. The Main Jury will then award the Franco Scataglini Prize to the best poetry film. The main prize for the 2024 edition will be €500. The winner will be announced during the evening event, after the screening of the selected short films.

The presence of the winning author or of a delegate cast/crew member (technical or artistic), in accordance with the possibility of travelling from their country/region during that time, is heavily encouraged for receiving the prize (presence of the winner notwithstanding, the title of winner will not be lost and remain valid).

Also to be presented to one of the finalist works will be a special Audience Award, as voted by the audience which will attend the screening.

FILM REGISTRATION RULES AND REGULATIONS

1) Each participant is allowed to submit a maximum of 2 (two) works.

2) The competition will accept works by authors of any nationality and language. For works in languages other than Italian, the participant will also have to provide subtitles either in Italian or in english. The subtitles must be in .srt /.rtf /.txt /.sub formats or hardcoded on the film’s video file.

3) To be considered for selection the submitted works must meet the following requirements:

The payment of a 10 € (ten Euros/00) entry fee is required to be allowed to participate. The payment of the fee entitles directors to submit up to 2 (two) short films and does not change if only one film is submitted.

If the submitter is a film producer and/or a distributor, he/she will be required to pay as many fees as the submitted works, if they are each by different directors.
