The 40th Torino Film Festival will take place from November 25 to December 3 under the aegis of the National Cinema Museum – chaired by Enzo Ghigo and directed by Domenico De Gaetano – and with the artistic direction of Steve Della Casa, who, twenty years later, directs the event once again. The consultants for Artistic Direction are Luca Beatrice, Claudia Bedogni, Giulio Casadei, Antonello Catacchio, Massimo Causo, David Grieco Grazia Paganelli, Giulio Sangiorgio and Caterina Taricano, Luigi Mascheroni, Paola Poli, and Alena Shumakova and Luciano Sovena.

 

The 40th edition of the Torino Film Festival marks the return of audiences to the cinemas and the National Cinema Museum has made the strategic choice to concentrate every effort on this aspect.

 

A new initiative, Casa Festival - a film citadel open to the public and located in the enchanting setting of the Cavallerizza Reale in downtown Turin - is, in its own way, symbolic. The festival wants to involve the city; it wants sector insiders and artists to mix with the public, in keeping with the festival's grand tradition. The decision to entrust the coordinated image of the 40th TFF to an internationally famous artist like Ugo Nespolo goes in this same direction. Nespolo is a movie habitué and, in creating the 40th TFF's poster, he decided to pay tribute to the great legends of film imagery and design pop elements that will decorate the city while the festival is ongoing.

 

Another choice was to inaugurate the festival with a gala at the Teatro Regio, during which Hollywood Party (Rai Radio3's legendary radio program dedicated to cinema) will discuss - in its own way and with prestigious guests - a fascinating topic, the relationship between the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and cinema. A choice that is both original and pop. The festival's patroness will be Pilar Fogliati, a brilliant Italian stage and screen actress who has chosen Turin's festival because it is attuned to her activities as an actress and an author.

 

There will be many guests, all very different but all with something in common: they won't be coming to Turin to tread a red carpet but to talk about movies (the ones they make or the ones they love), and they will do so in front of a vast audience of aficionados. From Malcolm McDowell (who will celebrate the 50th anniversary of A Clockwork Orange in Turin and will receive the National Cinema Museum's Stella della Mole Award) to Paola Cortellesi, Toni Servillo, Mario Martone, Stefano Bollani, Valentina Cenni, Paolo Sorrentino, Sergio Castellitto, Michele Placido, Noemi, Francesco De Gregori, Marco D’Amore, Marina Cicogna, Simona Ventura, Vittorio Sgarbi, Morgan, Gianluca Vialli, Roberto Mancini, Louis Mandoki, and Lamberto Bava. Different stories and ideas, but united by encounters with the public and a great love for the seventh art.

 

Then there are the movies. Lots of debut films and international previews, many titles we'll hear people talking about in the future, and also a few welcome returning visitors, such as Antonio Rezza, who comes back to the festival he won twice during the 1990s to propose an extraordinary movie.

 

And then there are the intersections, in particular with the Film Commission, Torino Film Lab, and Torino Film Industry, which this year sees the TFF involved firsthand.

Always attentive to topics regarding environmental sustainability, the Torino Film Festival reaffirms its intention to commit itself in that sense by adopting the good practices indicated in the Green Festival Guide created by the AFIC (Association of Italian Film Festivals) and its 10 thematic areas of intervention – from mobility to energy consumption, passing by way of nutritional sustainability and the production of ecological and recyclable merchandise, to make it a more ecologically-minded film event.

 

These are the elements that characterize the 40th Torino Film Festival, whose varied, detailed, and ambitious program is below here to download.

 

A cultured yet popular festival, research-oriented yet fun. A festival that intends to be a party.
