Início do Festival: 11 Agosto 2025      Fim do Festival: 12 Agosto 2025

The Italian Cinematography Awards (I.C.A.) is an international short film festival held in Castellana Grotte, located in Puglia, Southern Italy.
The event takes place in August in a location specifically selected for its technical and aesthetic features.

The I.C.A. unfolds over two immersive evenings, during which a curated selection of winning works from various categories will be screened. In order to encourage an active and engaging experience for the audience, the screenings will feature the presence of the filmmakers, who will engage in post-screening discussions with viewers—promoting a deeper understanding of their work and of the cinematic process.

The festival intentionally maintains a relaxed and informal atmosphere, immersing the audience from the very beginning into the festival experience. The venue will be carefully set up to host not only the screenings but also visual art exhibitions, contributing to a rich and multi-sensory cultural event.

Special guests will be in attendance, and awards will be assigned by both a technical jury and a youth jury.

The I.C.A. is held under the patronage of the Municipality of Castellana Grotte, and is organized by Joyful People Company – ETS, in partnership with Mosaico – APS.
Media Partner: Ombra Magazine

The artistic direction is entrusted to Joyful People Company (JPC), a film production company that, over the years, has worked to enhance audiovisual cultural heritage through the creation of numerous film projects, the publication of Ombra Magazine (dedicated to photography and cinema), the multidisciplinary arts festival Frankenstein Factory, and the cultural podcast Colazione Compresa.

JPC’s productions and collaborations have reached wide audiences, earning both national and international recognition.
