For the second edition of the Festival, the initiative is enriched in its cultural and educational offerings dedicated to participating high school and university students from all over the world. The Festival is structured in three days, including both public events (screenings, opening ceremony at Palazzo Reale and award ceremony at Fondazione Feltrinelli) with special guests, and workshops and masterclasses dedicated to the participants. The latter were held following two programs in parallel: the Directors program dedicated to young aspiring filmmakers and aimed at writing and shooting an original audiovisual product made in collaboration with local realities active in the field of sustainable development; and the Ambassadors program for Italian and international high school students aimed at planning an event to raise awareness of the Sustainable Development Goals through cinema that the participants will carry out in their schools and communities. All of this with experts in the field and representatives of nationally and internationally recognized public institutions and private entities.
