toniCorti is a non-competition, devoted to indie cinema and video.
The meaning of what we do lies in the relationship of trust and stimulation we try to create with authors.
We try to be a lab where authors, audience and qualified critics can watch, discuss, criticise, praise; a lab where the authorities of the critic, the audience or the author are banned, and so is the ever-reaching obsession of marketability.
We want to be a "horizontal" festival, which gives space to authors' ideas and suggestions, which welcomes discussion and other people's work, even if - exactly because - it is different from our own.
This year we will also give the authors the opportunity to introduce themselves and their works: we will create an open space where authors will be able not only show their videos but also to tell of the lives, stories, people that form that little or large world the film is. You will be completely free to present your film through images, words, music, theatre, food, performances, or anything else that might come to your mind. You can tell us how to get beyond the film, right into the world that the film represents.
toniCorti has been a non-competition for eleven years: a non-competitive festival, offering a review of independent and self-produced videos.
