”Good morning from Venice!
In just one month, the 83rd Venice International Film Festival will begin. This year's edition has unfortunately stood out for giving very little space to women.
For this reason, as representatives of the world's largest Independent Film Movement, we have decided to support the Human Rights Film Awards in Venice, a critics' award with not only a cultural mission but also a social one, aiming to stand against all forms of gender discrimination.
The results will be announced on September 2.
"Independent cinema is a poetic act, but also a revolutionary one!"
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Human Rights Film Awards in Venice – First Edition
An event supported by WILD FILMMAKER.”
I humbly extend my deepest gratitude to everyone involved for this truly important invitation.
My special thanks go to Michele Diomà, Valentina Lumi, 8&Halfilm Awards and the entire Wild Filmmaker team.
Here’s to a future where new cinema is created by everyone, regardless of gender.
With my warmest regards,
Lena Mattsson.
