(RE)EDIT COMPETITION

AWARDS CEREMONY

The Pesaro Film Festival has always focused on cinema as a form that is thought, and year after year has sought out not only new cinema, but also a new criticism of innovative tools and languages. Such as in the retrospectives on Thom Andersen, with his striking reflections on the image in audiovisual form, and pioneer André S. Labarthe’s groundbreaking Cinéastes de notre temps; and the 2015 video essay workshop that explored emerging forms of film criticism.

In the following editions, we implemented the (Re)Edit Competition for film students from uni- versities across the world and for the students of secondary schools.

The curator Chiara Grizzaffi has selected the following video essays, which she considers to be the most original and interesting:

Peter Tscherkassky: Reassembled, Noah Zoratti Scuola Civica di Cinema Luchino Visconti (Milano)
A Totally Serious Camp Analysis, Isobel Davies, University of St Andrews (Australia) MACHINE, Matteo Ferraro IULM (Milano)
Oltre il silenzio: vivere la sordità, Francesca Zarrella, Elga Cellura, Francesco Nardi, Petra Cirri, Università La Sapienza (Roma)
