Picknic Film Festival ()

Festival start: 08 August 2022      Festival end: 21 August 2022

In the early days of cinema, with the advent of the cinematograph, the avant-garde artists found a new medium of expression, called seventh art, which was soon adopted by the major studios.

Thus, the space occupied by the Picknic Film Festival, is a place where films of reduced visibility and distribution, but selected for prestigious film festivals, with the approval of the press, have the possibility to be screened.

In the Art Galleries of the city may be seen competition sections, such as animation, video art, documentary and short films in video and film, accompanied by concerts and performances.
