YOUTH IN MOTION

The image of this 34th edition and its claim see our zebra at the center of a concentric movement, an emblem of dynamism, energy and the ability to transform the present by bringing positive changes at such a critical time in history.

In this way, we want to pay tribute to our young filmmakers and guests who have always made the festival an inclusive place, capable of reflecting cultural diversity and the expressive power of quality cinema.

FESCAAAL is confirmed as a “young” space because of its ability to renew itself, reflect on contemporary trends and create synergies that are fundamental to the very design of the event.

Tribute to Alonso Ruizpalacios

FESCAAAL34 celebra il regista messicano, tra i maggiori esponenti della nuova generazione, con il suo ultimo film La cocina scelto per l'inaugurazione del festival, e la sua opera completa.
