The Giffoni Film Festival (GFF) was born in 1971 from a Claudio Gubitosi idea: i.e. promoting and developing cinema for young people elevating it from the marginal position it had back in those days, and leading it where it belongs , e.g. a high quality genre capable of “penetrating” the market. Festival for children and young adults (from 3 years up). Six competitive sections (Elements +3 - +6 - +10; Generator +13 - +16 - +18), international juries composed of approximately 450 youngsters per section. Feature films and short films. Every year various international talent and stars take part in the festival to meet the jurors and discuss with them about cinema.
