The IL FILM Festival has announced it’s official selection that will be screened on November 4th at Draper Hall.

Here are the films competing in this 2018 edition:

	Filmesque by Vincenzo De Sio In a near steampunk future the great film director Federico Fellini is in trouble with his camera. Totò ‘The Clown’ will help him and both will make a ‘filmesque’ trip. An art cartoon, a tribute to the cinema.
	Panettone by Agostino Orsini Panettone is a typical Italian Christmas cake and, in this case, a short film about a homeless guy who tries to reconcile with his past.
	Cupids by Angelo Calarco Two cupids need to team up in one of the greatest challenges of modern times: getting two strangers to talk to each other!
	Frank by Filippo Piramo Every time Frank looks at himself falls in a state of mental alienation: he enters his Ego is tormented by the paranoia that infest his mind
	Ieri e Domani by Lorenzo Sepalone Two solitudes touch lightly in a town in Southern Italy. Between the impossibility to forget the past and the hope for a better future, the two characters undertake a life journey through stops, expectations and restarts.
	The old man dreams Il Sogno del vecchio by Antonio La Camera The memory of the late wife persists strongly in the quiet life of an old man, whose routine is broken by a sudden illness that will force him to confront the flowing of time.
	We wanted to make Pictures. by Niccolò Gentili Paolo and Davor, the former Calabrian, the latter Serbian, have one aim in life: to make pictures. What unites them, other than their obvious ineptitude, is a passionate love for a great master: Marco Bellocchio. And so one day, between one hit on the bong and another, Paolo reads in a magazine that… Marco Bellocchio is going to shoot his next film in Bobbio! They have to go there, meet him and, whatever it takes, discover the secret to Making Pictures!
