16 Mar Bringing film culture to a touristic sea town

The city of San Giovanni A Piro – fraction of Scario, in collaboration with the cultural association Il Varco, is proud to announce a new event that will take place during the yearly celebrations of the 2019 Autumn Equinox, one of the biggest event in the territory, involving the towns of Bosco, Scario and San Giovanni a Piro with a series of concerts, exhibitions and art events.

Last year we had the privilege of having the italian singer and songwriter Francesco De Gregori on Scario’s Harbour, with a crowd of 20.000 to attend the event. We had Nina Zilli and Luca Barbarossa and many other events. This year we’re going to expand the event with two nights of cinema in the main square of Scario, in front of our beautiful Harbour. Screenings will be held in open-air, with all the city attending.

Two days of cinema with the best shorts received through this call for entries that we’ll select from all over the world, thanks to the collaboration with the staff from cultural association Il Varco, that are already organizing one of the most important indie festival in Italy, “Il Varco – International Short Film Festival”.

The city of Scario is famous for the quality of its waters and for its position in the Gulf of Policastro. Many tourists from all over the world come here on vacation to enjoy the beautiful beaches carved in stone, only accessible through boat service. Clear and transparent water like in a tropical paradise.

In collaboration with the cultural association Il Varco – one of the most prominent cultural associations for the promotion of short film culture in Italy, we wanted to bring high-level international short film to a touristic place to give it a broader audience from all over the world.

Join us for an experience of sea, cinema, art and culture.
See you in Scario.
