Visioni Fantastiche

Visioni Fantastiche (Fantastic Visions) is a film festival dedicated to schools of all types and levels. The Festival will propose screenings of short and feature films, either fiction, animation or documentary, exploring fantastic genre and all its declinations, through international competitions, retrospectives, special events, meetings, forums, workshops, readings. INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONS The five International Competitions and their five Juries are the Festival’s beating heart. Each competition will have a Jury: the Visionaries. They will be organized as follows: Visionaries 6+ / Visionaries 9+ / Visionaries 12+ / Visionaries 16+ / Visionaries 18+ The International Competition is therefore divided into five categories clustered by age groups. All categories conceive and accept short and feature films, welcoming fiction, animation, documentary and also experimental works, with a greater concentration of shorts, mainly animated, for the Competitions intended for younger students (International Competition 6+ and International Competition 9+) and, as age increases, longer durations and a greater viariety of genres. Short and feature films are therefore numerically balanced starting from International Competition 12+, whereas films of International Competition 16+ and International Competition 18+ increase in duration and variety, being always attributable to fantastic genre and all its declinations. Please note: If submitters want to specify a specific age group to which their films are addressed among the ones corresponding to the International Competitions, we invite them to let us know directly through the submitting platform or via email at info@visionifantastiche.it. Important: Independently from the film submission made by the director, producer or copyright holder, the final allocation to one of the five categories of the International Competitions will be decided by the Festival Direction.
