Locarno Shorts Weeks 2024: 29 Days, 29 Short Films
#LocarnoShortsWeeks is back for its sixth edition, this year covering the 29 days of February 2024 and showcasing some of the
Festival’s most eye-popping, heart-stopping, mind-altering international short films. It is available completely for free around the world, which is made possible with the support of @swisslife.
Established masters and young avant-gardists, new talents and familiar faces - together they rub shoulders in a curated selection that suggests the sheer range of contemporary filmmaking in the short form. Superstitious people claim that leap years are unlucky, but #LocarnoShortsWeeks rejects that and shines with optimism. Short films, long pleasure.
Later in February, a selection of the films in #LocarnoShortsWeeks will be available on #PlaySuisse for a longer period with audio description and subtitles in several languages. More on that to come!
Remember to vote for your favorite and win your experience at Locarno77.

About Locarno Film Festival:
Conceived in 1946 in the aftermath of World War II, the Locarno Film Festival was destined to be a platform for the rebirth of freedom of artistic expression, and since its inception the annual event has hosted the boldest, most avant-garde and innovative forms of filmmaking. Lying between the mountains and the Swiss shore of Lake Maggiore, once a year the city of Locarno is decked out in the yellow-and-black Leopard spotting of the Festival colors to host an intensive, 11-day celebration of cinema.

    I go back and forth with this guy. Sometimes I think he is a clever artist, yet sometimes he seems like a stoned idiot who somehow made a couple films.

    It is the best way to keep us divided by destroying places such as pubs as these where environments to `let off steam` and exchange ideas about what is actually going on. Too dangerous for the powers that be. Best to keep people at home watching crap TV to keep us sedated along with prescription drugs. People have to Wake Up!!!!

    herzog operated, for most of his career, near the utmost extent of frugality. "apocalypse now" had a budget of $31 million, while "aguirre" had a budget of just $370,000: and this was before digital, when film itself actually cost money. so when you're making a movie like "fitzcarraldo" or "aguirre" on a budget like that, and you actually have to buy the film in addition to everything else, you don't have much to spare for "coverage." he talks about this in "conquest of the useless," which is a fantastic book

    INCREDIBLE film! I just saw it last night and I’m still blown away, just digesting bits in my mind today. Masterpiece of filmmaking, wow! Yes, I did hate the character of Bobita at first but by the middle of the film I was so carried away by the acting of Ms Manolache and Radu Jude’s mind blowing film that by the time we got to the old Uranus neighborhood, I had tears in my eyes. Love love love Bobita now. Great interview! Radu Jude- true creative artist❤ Do Not Expect too Much/End of World is a brilliant film. My number one favorite movie this year.

    Ho già avuto modo di poter apprezzare questo giovane talento naturale, nella serie un professore. La semplicità insieme all'umilta', hanno reso già grande un ragazzo nato per comunicare, per condividere. Delicatezza, buone maniere, ed una scintillante umanità, rendono e renderanno in futuro Domenico Cuomo fra le stelle più belle e luminose del cinema italiano ed internazionale. Finalmente un giovane che brilla di luce propria... Faccio i miei complimenti anche alla giovane ragazza coprotagonista del film, davvero profonde ed emozionanti le sue parole se commisurate alla sua giovane età... Che dire, dedico ad entrambi questi talenti, una esortazione musiva... " Orecchio ama pacato la musa, e mente arguta e cor gentile..." Vito Cuti
