Students, filmmakers, and cinema lovers,

It is with great excitement that I welcome you to the fifteenth edition of the LANTERNA International University Film Festival.

This is no ordinary edition: we’re celebrating fifteen years of stories, voices, and narratives that have crossed our lives and left a mark.

In this very special edition, we want to look back with gratitude and look forward with boldness. Fifteen years of university cinema is not just a journey—it’s a statement of purpose. Of who we were, who we are, and what we aspire to tell.

Cinema is not just what we see:
It’s what we feel without knowing how to explain it.
It’s what connects us without saying a word.
It’s what, from the university, invites us to see the world differently.

I invite you to be part of [...]

ASSERTING WOMEN'S RIGHTS is a project that emerged from the Festival de Málaga, in collaboration with documentary filmmaker Mabel Lozano and the Equal Opportunities Department of the Malaga City Council, as a tool for protest and advocacy. This section was created with the aim of exploring and addressing issues that raise social awareness about women's rights each year.

Launched in 2008, this section of the Festival de Málaga is now in its 19th edition. The project has a dual purpose: to shed light on the injustices that women continue to face in the 21st century simply because they are women, and to promote and support films created by women.

Through Asserting Women's Rights, we have brought attention to the challenges women face in different parts of the world. Even today, [...]

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 [...]
