(ANSA) - TRIESTE, 13 GEN - Czech director Petr Vàclav's film

industry. There are nine titles in the feature film competition,
eleven in the documentary competition, and seventeen in the
short film competition. The focus countries are Czechoslovakia

"The Trieste film festival - underlined the regional councilor
for culture, Tiziana Gibelli - maintains the ability to innovate
and integrate its cultural offer, also through the launch of
interdisciplinary collaborations and dialogue with other sectors
of culture."
Several side events, including a panel connected to Gorizia-Nova
Gorica, the European capital of culture in 2025, are scheduled
for January 23, during which representatives of the previous
culture capitals will be invited to the Savoia Excelsior hotel
in Trieste to launch new synergies.
A series of meetings with authors, exhibitions and museum
openings, book presentations, walks, music, food, and wine
events are also planned.

producers, broadcasters, and markets from Eastern and Western
countries, is also reaching its 13th edition. (ANSA).
