"After a very difficult first edition in the middle of the COVID second wave," said artistic director and founder of FLIGHT, director Aleksandr Balagura, "this year, we are very optimistic on our road to making FLIGHT a point of reference for all lovers of cinema as an art form, to all people who, as authors or spectators, as critics or hardcore cinephiles, live for the cinema."

The jury, presided over by experimental film scholar Ester Carla De Miro, will award the Grand Prize dedicated to Eadweard Muybridge and created by the young Italian artist Thomas Gori to one of the films in competition, regardless of the genre, duration or origin.
