Multiple events
Regione Calabria
From 4 to 6 October 2024, the film festival Brettion Lagaria Emergenti Visioni will be held, a festival dedicated to the dissemination of public archaeology and cultural heritage through the visual arts. The event, which will take place in three different locations - the San Sosti Museum System, the Castrovillari Museum System, and the Francavilla Marittima Archaeological Park - will offer a rich programme of screenings, educational workshops, and dissemination activities.
The festival will include the screening of eight competing documentaries, flanked by the winning docufilms of the previous edition, and will be enriched by numerous side events, such as the photographic exhibition ‘Mario Carbone travelling with Carlo Levi in 1960 in the countries of Lucania’, presentations of archaeological guides, and guided tours at museums and archaeological parks. During the event, the public can take part in video filming workshops at historical sites, educational activities for schools, and tastings of local food and wine products. Among the prizes awarded during the festival, the Brettion Prize will be awarded to the film most appreciated by the public, while the Enotri Prize will be awarded by a jury of experts to the best archaeological docufilm.
Admission is free for all planned activities.
