XXVIIedition
Arrived at XXVII edition, Linea d’Ombra Festival continues its journey in the contemporary, riproposing and researching works of the creativity of our time, through cinema and audiovisual arts.
Our Linea d’Ombra
The name of the festival has been taken from Joseph Conrad’s novel, but still today the Shadow Line to which we refer is the typical condition of our present day. It is a non-stop change from one world to another, from one epoch to another, without time for nostalgia. Maybe.
