Presented by La Biennale di Venezia, The Gotham, and Netflix

The Biennale College Cinema is an incubator program that has had a tremendous impact on contemporary world cinema by nurturing and producing low-budget films by emerging filmmakers. This new four-day event celebrates the first ten years of the program, with screenings and in-depth discussions pairing new filmmakers with established directors, producers, and writers. The discussions will include exclusive behind-the-scenes video giving a glimpse into the production process. The films to be screened are: Beautiful Things (dir. Giorgio Ferrero), The Cathedral (dir. Ricky D’Ambrose), The Fits (dir. Anna Rose Holmer), Hotel Salvation (dir. Shubhashish Bhutiani), Our Father, the Devil (dir. Ellie Foumbi), and This is not a Burial, It’s a Resurrection (dir. Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese).
