Embrace the Power of Cinema to Explore Democracy
This cultural event invites filmmakers to explore the challenges and values of democracy through the lens of cinema, encouraging each participant to express their unique perspective. Whether through fiction, documentaries, animations, essays, or experimental formats, all cinematic expressions are welcome, regardless of whether they are short, medium, or feature-length films. This initiative is a celebration of creativity and a call to action for filmmakers to engage with pressing societal issues.
A Platform for Emerging and Established Filmmakers
The call is open to both emerging talents and seasoned directors, providing a distinctive platform to showcase their works in front of an engaged audience. This event not only offers a chance to present films but also facilitates debates that elevate cinema as a tool for citizenship and social engagement. Filmmakers interested in participating must submit their films by May 10, 2026. The "White Night of Cinema and Democracy" aims to be more than just a film screening; it is envisioned as a space for dialogue and reflection where visuals serve as a medium to question the tensions, imaginations, and values associated with democracy. This presents a unique opportunity for the public and professionals to connect and exchange ideas about the significant role of cinema in society.
