The president of the feature film jury will be Danish director Alexander
Sagmo. The director Antonello Schioppa and the screenwriter and
producer Zelia Zbogar will be the presidents of the jury respectively in the short films and documentaries categories.
Less than two weeks before the start of the ninth edition of the Torino Underground
Cinefest, the artistic director Mauro Russo Rouge officially announces the members of
the three international juries of the ninth edition of the Turin indie film festival which
will take place from 27 September to 5 October at CineTeatro Baretti.
The Feature Film Jury will be chaired by Danish director Alexander Sagmo who was
awarded Best Directorat the fifth TUC for “Needle Boy”. Alongside him there will be
the director Cristiano Anania, the journalist and film critic Fabrizio Accatino, and the
director Antonio Romagnoli.
The Short Film Jury will instead have director Antonello Schioppa as president who
will be assisted by the director and cinema and theater teacher Bernardo Migliaccio
Spina, by the producer Pietro Cestari, and by the film critic Giacomo Tinti.
Finally, the Documentary Jury will be chaired by the screenwriter and producer Zelia
Zbogar, alongside which there will be the journalist and film critic Carlo Griseri, the
film teacher and director Enrico La Pera, and the documentary editor Paolo Favaro.
The Sound Designer Paolo Armao will take care of decreeing the Award for the Best
Sound Design while the Color Designer Davis Alfano will award the Award for the
Best Cinematography.
An internal festival commission will also decide the Best Film of the three sections
introduced this year: “Experimental”, “Italian Showcase” and “Insane”.
Annunziato Gentiluomo, director of the online journal ArtInMovimento Magazine,
which has followed the festival since its inception, will decide, in discussions with its
editorial staff, the film to which the ArtInMovimento Special Mention will be awarded.
“Three balanced Juries, full of different professionalisms and skills that will certainly be
able to analyze the films in competition this year. I thank them in advance for their
precious work which will ultimately decide the winners of this ninth edition. That said,
already being in the official selection is a great success. The game of prizes, which is
absolutely subjective, must in no way affect the moods of the authors”, says the artistic
director Mauro Russo Rouge.
