Up until 2024 I was involved in the artistic direction of many short film screening, with the goal of creating a cultural humus that can teach and spread knowledge in today’s short film panorama. At the center of my events I tried to have good films, an in-depth debate with the guests and the possibility, for the public, to bring home with them new contents, ideas, messages, aesthetics. Since 2014 the events I curated brought short films from 135+ countries from all around the world to more than 12500 people, gathering more than 15.000 submissions from directors of all ages, styles, genres and budget.
In december 2024 I resigned as an artistic director to dedicate myself full time to my directing career.
