Ombre Elettriche (1)

영화제 시작: 17 5월 2024      영화제 끝: 19 5월 2024

Ombre Elettriche is a young film festival dedicated to films from Asian, African and Latin American continent.

The first edition will be held in Cicciano, Napoli (Southern Italy) from the 17th to the 19th of May 2024.

The festival was created by a group of young people under 25 with the aim of creating a bridge between culture of continents and countries that have always been plagued by serious prejudices and stereotypes that have filtered their reality from a Western point of view. We prefer the short film form in order to be able to give voice to young authors - and not - who succeed through the language of film, to create interest and debate on political, social and less committed topics with the aim of shaking the viewer's conscience, carrying forward the idea of cinema as a subversive art.

We want to reach especially those who are not used to this type of initiatives and are not familiar with these cultural contents.
