THE 10TH ROME FILM FEST
The 10th Rome Film Fest will take place from October 16 to 24, 2015, at the Auditorium
Parco della Musica and in other venues in the city of Rome.
For nine days, the building complex designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano will host
screenings, exhibitions, onstage conversations, events, conferences, and panels. The
1,300 square metres of the avenue leading to the Cavea (an open-air theatre square) will
become one of the largest red carpets in the world.
The audience will have a choice of several movie theatres from the “Parco della Musica”
(Sinopoli, Petrassi, Teatro Mazda Cinema Hall, Studio Gianni Borgna, Studio 3, and
AuditoriumArte), to the Auditorium MAXXI at the National Museum of XXI Century Arts,
the Casa del Cinema, the Cinema Trevi, from many other movie theatres in the city (Eden,
Alcazar, Atlantic, Greenwich, Aquila), to the Ostia Cineland Multiplex. Accanto
all’Auditorium sorgerà il Villaggio del Cinema, costituito da padiglioni e stand in acciaio,
vetro e legno, appositamente realizzati per la manifestazione e i suoi visitatori.
The Official Selection of the Rome Film Fest is composed of 37 films, with the aim of
offering quality and excellence in film: from independent to genre productions, from
renowned authors to emerging talents, experimental cinema and films with a clear
vocation for entertainment, animation, visual art, and documentaries. This year the
Tributes, the Retrospectives, and the “Close Encounters” will play an important role,
offering onstage conversations with actors and protagonists of the Italian and international
cultural panorama.
