During the last twelve years, Future Film Festival has become the most significant Italian event dedicated to animation and special effects. Every year, the most important film-directors, art-directors and creative-producers come to Bologna to show their own films’ premiéres, backstages of their successes and exclusive pictures from new productions. A preview of the future, but not only: Future Film Festival dedicates retrospectives to the history of animated cinema and sci-fi, as well as meetings and events about new technologies applications to other fields, like web and videogames.
