Locarno has always been a fertile meeting place, where different experiences come into contact. The image of the crossroads, where
approaches intersect, is echoed by the image of the Piazza Grande, a place for exchanging things and ideas. Film is an art of exchange.
A picture is exchanged for reality, an individual journey for a vision of the world. It’s a magic trick, but one which both bewitches and
enriches us.
[Carlo Chatrian, Artistic Director]
