With the presentation on September 19, the journey leading to the first edition of Grifo Festival – International Short Film – Perugia, expected for September 2027, officially began.

In the coming months, the call for entries and regulations for submitting short films will be published, along with the methods for schools and institutions to participate. The cultural framework of the festival will not be limited to cinema: literature, art, and science will become part of the program as complementary languages.

Who can join the project, immediately

  • Schools and universities: awareness-raising programs and production of short films made by students;
  • Young female and male authors: proposals for short films, artistic projects, and social initiatives on themes of equality and respect;
  • Institutions, associations, and cultural organizations: joining the network of Orange the World value ambassadors;
  • Media and partners: collaborations to amplify the dissemination of content.

The stated philosophy of the festival is to remain “under the radar” as individuals, promoting the leading role of young people and the communities involved, so that the festival is a place for listening, active participation, and shared construction of a new value system.
