The President of the Montecatini International Short Film Festival, Marcello Zeppi, will present—together with several authors and directors—books and audiovisual works that explore themes and techniques involved in adapting literary works into films, ranging from feature films to short films and video art. The artists and intellectuals in attendance are involved in the section of the Festival dedicated to the “International Road Show BOOK & MOVIE” which aims not only at internationalization but also at showcasing, through a traveling format, the works they have written and produced during international events such as the Cannes Film Festival, where the most important film production companies are present—an important collaboration for fostering the growth of Italian film production.
