18° FESTIVAL DEL CINEMA SPERIMENTALE CINETORO
CINETORO è concepito come una Festival-School transdisciplinare, dedicata alla pratica curatoriale e alla formazione dei registi, alla costruzione di ponti tra talenti emergenti e artisti di spicco nazionali e internazionali e alla promozione di analisi e critiche relative alla produzione e al pensiero alla base del cinema e dell'animazione sperimentali.
Sosteniamo un cinema in cui poesia e arte dialogano; che ponga il suo limite oltre il perimetro della spettacolarità, della correttezza tecnica, degli argomenti e delle forme all'ordine del giorno. È un cinema imperfetto, che accetta la sua condizione artigianale e si preoccupa del recupero della coscienza della corporeità; riflette, problematizza e mette in discussione la costruzione dell'immagine e del suono.
Cinema con un'impronta territoriale, che ridisegna, muta e si pronuncia davanti al mondo. Ridimensionare il territorio, trasformare la prospettiva sulla ruralità e fornire alla comunità spazi per l'appropriazione della conoscenza.
CANTI ABISSALI
Quello che sentiamo è vivo?
#SeeAndHearDifferently:
Un suono lontano rimbomba nell'oscurità della stanza, un richiamo proveniente dalle profondità abissali dell'oceano, una canzone penetrante che attrae e lega. L'ascoltatore accede al ritardo temporale e salta nel vuoto. Quel salto comporta un pericolo e, allo stesso tempo, è un incontro con l'ignoto. Quei film che saltano, che cercano nell'oscurità, nell'ombra, nel mistero, nello spettro, nel suono ma anche nel silenzio, sono quelli che ci interessano di questa edizione.
Il suono, in quanto movimento, può rivelare la dimensione temporale di un'immagine, ferma o in movimento. Piuttosto che limitarsi a supportare semanticamente le immagini, il suono può fungere da asse strutturale. Cerchiamo film che esplorino le diverse relazioni tra immagine e suono o trattino il suono come materiale plastico. Che si tratti di un approccio concettuale in cui il suono struttura il film; o in cui la voce ha un peso non solo per ciò che viene detto, ma anche per le sue qualità: la voce come materiale plastico, come rivelazione e riverbero; o dove la musica, invece di accompagnare semplicemente l'immagine, diventa una parte strutturale del film stesso. Film che prendono forma attraverso il suono.
Vogliamo immergerci nelle profondità del suono, in modo che con gli occhi chiusi possiamo vedere e ascoltare mentre nuotiamo e ci immergiamo, poiché, da un punto di vista teorico o curatoriale, sono state fatte poche esplorazioni in queste acque
I canti abissali fungono da richiamo, e questa chiamata è ciò a cui vogliamo rispondere, in questa edizione. Cerchiamo animazioni, documentari, fiction, film ibridi e sperimentazioni che risuonino con questi canti, con questo invito a vedere e sentire in modo diverso.

The Flagler Film Festival was formed to showcase the work of new and emerging filmmakers as well as more experienced filmmakers. We believe there are many creative and innovative artists who deserve recognition for their efforts, especially those constrained by low budgets. We believe that sometimes even more creativity is required when a filmmaker has little or no budget with which to create a film. We believe these films should be seen and be recognized for the efforts of the teams that put them together. The writers, directors, crew, actors and all the talented people involved in the production of a film, whether it is a feature or a short, deserve to have a chance to be seen. We are proud to give filmmakers an opportunity to show their work.
Our fourth annual Flagler Film Festival showcased many fantastic films from around the world, including a short animation which was nominated this year for an Academy Award! Films produced by students from Florida State University, NYU, University of Virginia, Savannah College of Art & Design, Full Sail University, and the American Film Institute were screened as well as films from graduates of many other fine colleges and universities. We were proud to showcase local filmmakers as well as filmmakers from such diverse locations as Luxembourg, Spain, France, Rwanda, Australia, Nepal, Canada, Serbia, Iran, and Peru. As an artistic community, we enjoy including musicians, writers and artists at our festival as well as filmmakers. This year our special guest was Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Steve Boone, of the '60's band The Lovin' Spoonful. Steve met many of our audience and signed CDs, albums and his new book, "Hotter than a Match Head: On the Run with the Lovin' Spoonful." We showcased a short comedy from actor Chris Roach who currently stars on CBS in "Kevin Can Wait" with Kevin James. One of our documentaries, "Daddy Don't Go" was recently picked up by Starz and will be available to the public!
