Alice - an intelligent little girl filled with curiosity, dressed in red with her arms thrown open to the world, who speaks in cartoon bubbles – is partying for cinema around the city, from the Auditorium to Piazza Augusto Imperatore and Piazza dei Sanniti in San Lorenzo. This is the logo, the heart, the symbol of “Alice nella città”, the children’s festival running as an integral part of the RomeFilmFest from this year, as one of the Roman programme’s five sections. From the 13th to the 20th of October, the 150 jurors aged between 8 and 14 will be working to choose the winners in two categories: cinema and books. There are 14 films in competition, divided into two groups based on the age of the audience and jurors: “K12”, for children aged 12 to 14 and “Young Adult” for those between 13 and 17 years of age. Five books will be running for the Ungari UNICEF award. Prizes range from 2,000 euros for a special mention to 5,000 euros for the winner. The jury is made up of students from five Roman schools selected from those most active in teaching cinema and literature to youngsters. Jurors will be based in a centre on Via Flaminia throughout the festival, where they will be followed by 12 UNICEF tutors, aiming to promote children’s rights. The whole event will be accompanied by sidebar programmes held in historic venues throughout the capital, decked out in contemporary style for the occasion by Spanish designer Marti Guixe.
Here is Morgan now working hard on "Island Fever" in Maui!
