By including works of all genres and formats, from very short films to 150-minute feature-length movies, in its search for striking film forms from all around the world, the Pesaro International Festival of New Cinema, whose 57th edition is unfolding in person between 19 and 26 June, is continuing the revolution it initiated last year, offering up another varied competition unfettered by duration, genre or age limitations, with the sole goal of showcasing new forms of cinematic expression and, as specified by the event’s director Pedro Armocida, “promoting experimental approaches and new film styles and languages”.

. From Argentina comes There Are Not Thirty-Six Ways Of Showing A Man Getting On A Horse by Nicolás Zukerfeld, which is both a reflection on classic American cinema and a spy story revolving around the legendary, titular phrase uttered by Raoul Walsh, and three Italian directors are also limbering up to compete with their short films: Luca Ferri with Mille cipressi, which takes viewers on a journey between the metaphysical and the surreal by way of Carlo Scarpa’s Tomba Brion cemetery; The Nightwalk by Adriano Valerio, exploring the lockdowns endured and escapes enjoyed by a man stuck in Shanghai during the pandemic; and Gianmarco Donaggio, who delivers a “textured film” by way of Manifestarsi, which offers a “microscopic” exploration of billboards across Milan.

The festival is scheduled to open with Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark 40 years on from its original release (the film will be presented by They Call Me Jeeg [+lee también:

A totally new addition to the gathering this year is the Pesaro Film Festival Circus, a cinema village designed with the very young in mind and featuring workshops and laboratories, but also film screenings which will kick off with Gints Zilbalodis’ animated film Away [+lee también:

Another new project, Open Access Cinema, will explore the options offered to filmmakers by the internet, through the eyes of six international curators (Karianne Fiorini, Tommaso Isabella, Federico Rossin, Dwight Swanson, Gina Telaroli, Wu Wenguang) who work with the different audiovisual resources freely available online and will offer up five programmes which can be followed by way of a Zoom-based webinar.
