Travelers of the twenty-first century, welcome to the sixth edition of the Andaras Traveling Film Festival, the place where imagination dances on the big screen and dreams open the door to unexplored universes.
“Per Andaras Ad Astra” is the chant that resonates in the interstellar canyons, the mantra whispered persistently by those who do not fear the unknown, by those who believe that going around the world is the shortest way to reach oneself. Indeed, more than any other human activity, traveling is a state of mind, the knowledge and search for oneself and others, the starting point of every arrival.
“Ad Astra” is the secret code, the call to explore the cinematic multiverse that opens the curtain of this sixth edition. Join us, join our space caravan ready to depart.
From 15th to 20th July 2024, the festival will take you into a world made of projections suspended between reality and fiction, meetings with quantum minds and artists from other dimensions, food and wine banquets, sounds and music that the human ear has never heard before.
With the quantum stream of Andaras, by signing the manifesto of illusions, directors, artists and spectators will enter a liminal place, between the mountains and beaches of the Costa delle Miniere, where fantasy and reality merge into an experience that follows the fine line of the cinematic world.
Through this sixth edition's theme, "AD ASTRA", we seek a new way of looking at the world, stories of rebirth, discovery and education. Interstellar journeys and space caravans, cosmic and artificial intelligences, primordial dances and travels back in time.
