Adriatikino Adriatic Film Exhibition celebrating Analog Footage Film (1)

영화제 시작: 29 5월 2025      영화제 끝: 31 5월 2025

We are excited to announce the first open call for short films based on celluloid film with no boundaries on genre. Experimentations, found footage, archive's creative use and mixed media are welcome, as well as any language that challenges the orthodoxy.

AdriatiKino is a screening organized by local filmmakers in collaboration with Luma Experimental Film Lab and Teatro Nuovo di Capodarco in Fermo (Italy), close to the Adriatic Sea. Inspired by its historical spirit of connecting cultures, Adriatikino aims to be an encounter to nourish a film lover community, to promote interchange between filmmakers and film lovers, as well as to spread analog film practices.

The event includes screenings and workshops. The movie theater Teatro Nuovo di Capodarco is the main venue for an open air digital screening (inside screening if raining) where there will also be an informal dinner.

Luma experimental Film Lab is a second venue for an analog projection (Super 8 and/or 16 mm) and a film workshop promoting dark room experience.

We are seeking short films that use celluloid film, no longer than 15 min, and should be submitted digitally with a link to an online screener.

Screening dates: 29 - 31 May 2025
Venues: Cortile Clareni at Nuovo Teatro di
Capodarco, Capodarco di Fermo (FM), Italy
Luma Experimental Film Lab, Fermo (FM), Italy

Adriatikino is a non competitive screening
