Italy will be the guest of honour at the 30th Guadalajara International Film Festival (FICG), which runs from 6 to 15 March 2015. The festival will include a retrospective featuring the work of Bernardo Bertolucci and Bruno Bozzetto. Italy will also be taking part in the 11th Co-Production Forum, with a project entitled “The Whale”. Another Italian initiative, supported by Italian Trade Agency-ICE and Istituto Luce Cinecitta’, is the re-issue of Laura Delli Colli’s book “El gusto del cine italiano”, in Spanish.
Italy’s participation in the Festival was supported by the Italian Embassy in Mexico City and organised by ICE, Istituto Luce Cinecittà and ANICA. The Ministry of Cultural Assets and Activities and Tourism and the Ministry of Economic Development are also supporting the event, which is one of the “Year of Italy in Latin America” initiatives.
