The out-of-competition programme presents a particularly wide spectrum of different short films this year.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0<\/span>2015 FOCUS<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>will be devoted to\u00a0<\/span>IRAN<\/strong>, and will present short films characterized by a simple and effective realism, that remains vivid in the viewers\u2019 memory.<\/p>\n Another retrospective will feature a selection of films produced by the French production and distribution company\u00a0<\/span>AUTOUR DE MINUIT<\/strong>, created in 2001 by Nicolas Schmerkin. Films produced or distributed by Autour de Minuit have won more than 200 awards in festivals worldwide, including the 2010 Academy Award for Best Animated Short, and the 2011 Prix C\u00e9sar for Best Short Film.<\/p>\n We will continue with an homage to\u00a0<\/span>SILHOUETTE<\/strong>, a Short Film Festival taking place in Paris. The partnership we have put in place this year will culminate with a presentation on August 29th of some Concorto films at Silhouette and some Silhouette films at Concorto. Our audience will have the chance to see the films by five talented young French filmmakers, which will show us a surprising kaleidoscope on the future of French cinema.<\/p>\n Other\u00a0<\/span>20 out of competition films<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>complete the program. They will be screened in two charming locations: in the late afternoon in Piacenza, at the ex-Enel palace belonging to the Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano, and for the midnight screenings in the Teatro Serra of Parco Raggio in Pontenure.<\/p>\n IRAN FOCUS<\/strong> AUTOUR DE MINUIT RETROSPECTIVE<\/strong> HOMMAGE TO SILHOUETTE FESTIVAL, PARIS<\/strong> OUT OF COMPETITION SHORT FILMS<\/strong> The out-of-competition programme presents a particularly wide spectrum of different short films this year.
