The Wedding Cake at the Ibiza Cinefest!

New selection for The Wedding Cake! The festival dates are still not clear, as the pandemic still makes it wholly uncertain, but sooner or later the Ibiza Cinefest will take place and I am very proud and happy to be participating to a such a high-profile festival!

“The Wedding Cake” at the Clermont-Ferrand Market Picks!

“The Wedding Cake” did not make it to compete in the most important shortfilm festival in the world, unfortunately, BUT it was picked among the over 8,000 submitted shorts to be present in the exciting 36th edition of the “Short Film Market Picks”. It is a platform where the festival organizers present cherry-picked material for worldwide buyers.

“The Wedding Cake” awarded at the Sarno Film Festival!

What an incredible weekend for me and my little “The Wedding Cake”! Yesterday the victory at the Roma Film Corto, and today the Special Mention at prestigious Sarno Film Festival!

Thank you, really heartfelt thanks to the jury and to the organizers of the SFF: Dea Squillante (Artistic Director), Ivana Duca, Claudia Prisco and Francesca Diodato (visible in the photo of the last edition of the festival), who gave me this wonderful opportunity to show the my short!

This is the motivation:
The SFF attributes a Special Mention to the Italian short film “The Wedding Cake” by Monica Mazzitelli for dealing with a hard and deeply tragic story, that is unfortunately so common, albeit unspoken. An important theme, told through effective visual metaphors, concise, and with a good use of photography.

This is my presentation, in Italian:

This is the video I shot yesterday (in Italian!) to happily thank the Artistic Director Roberto Petrocchi and the jury, headed by the acclaimed actor Leo Gullotta, for choosing “The Wedding Cake” as best short in the “Social Cinema” section of the 2020 edition of the Roma Film Corto film festival!
