\nStill, the core and the basic idea behind\u00a0Gli occhi sulla citt\u00e0<\/em>\u00a0remain the same.\u00a0Cinema and urban spaces<\/strong>, a subject specifying and characterizing our observation point; at the same time, these two topics allow a wide range of cinematic approaches. The main goal is to think about urban transformations, their social consequences, their style and expressive changes, also their influence on our thoughts and imagination. The contests are open to any films, regardless of genre and nationality, capable of reflecting and reinventing urban spaces; perhaps movies influenced by city or townscapes, able to hypothesise production and distribution methods tightly bound to the environments they\u2019re set in. Works that manage to tell something about past and present cities or towns, even films that attempt to imagine possible and impossible perspectives of a future city. Works in relationship with architecture, politics, city planning, or \u201csimply\u201d using the city\/town as a\/the character of their stories.
\nThe relationship between the subject and the story is left to the creativity and originality of the author, as you can see taking a look at the winners of the past editions like DRIFT<\/em> by Helena Wittmann, Confident<\/em> by Karen Akerman and Miguel Seabra Lopes, Deposizione in due atti<\/em> by Carlo Michele Schirinzi, Santa Teresa<\/em> by Emanuele Dainotti and Alessandro Capuzzi. The juries has been lead by masters of cinema like Jia Zhang-ke, Abel Ferrara, Daniele Gaglianone, who’ve always read the urban topic in an open, transversal way.
\n <\/p>\n
\n
\nAdmission rules<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nThe subject is cinema among urban spaces, declinable with total liberty. Contestants are allowed to resort to an \u201cexclusively\u201d narrative tone, but also urban, architectural, political and sociological accents are permitted. Nonetheless, every work will have to deal with urban pattern, questioning about cinema capacity to tell, describe or even \u201cpredict\u201d and outline contemporary cities transformations, their scenarios, perspectives and issues.
