Storia in Corto (8)

Début du Festival: 15 novembre 2025      Fin du Festival: 16 novembre 2025

The Department of Culture of the Municipality of Mentana in collaboration with Ricreazione Soc.Coop.Soc.ONLUS ,organizes the seventh edition of the historical audiovisual Festival "STORY IN SHORT".

The idea was born because our territory is rich in testimonies, from the pre-Roman era up to the Risorgimento: the enhancement of this heritage therefore also passes through a film festival that collects the works of authors who have ventured into an area that is not very 'frequented' such as reconstruction and historical analysis through short films, documentaries and audio-documentaries.

There are no content limits set for participation in the festival: all of History will be the subject of the works presented.

The jury will reserve the right to select the works to be screened in the event that the number of works presented exceeds the times and possibilities of programming.

All the selected works will be presented and the author will be able to tell his work to the audience in the room.

The following prizes will be awarded to the most deserving works:

– prize of the technical jury (money prize)

– prize of the popular jury

– student jury prize
