RIFF – Rome Independent Film Festival, is back – marking its 16th edition – from the 28th of November until the 3rd of December <\/span><\/span>at Casa del Cinema in Rome, showing more than 100 Italian previews.<\/p>\n

The new edition of RIFF<\/span> will be focused on Spain, particularly concentrating on music and human rights. As a matter of facts, the subheading for the agenda \u201cOpere Prime\u201d will be \u201cStorie e Canzoni\u201d (Stories and Songs).<\/p>\n


\nRIFF – Rome Independent Film Festival – Vizual ; Ustupio RIFF<\/p>\n

Following last year\u2019s homage to Claudio Caligari, in this edition the Festival will pay tribute to Valerio Zurlini, another great Italian cinematographer who passed away 35 years ago.\u00a0In 1962, he was awarded the Leone d\u2019Oro in Venice for his film Cronaca Familiare (which will be screened at RIFF<\/span>). With 10 films produced in 20 years<\/span><\/span> of activity, Valerio Zurlini\u2019s distinctive trait lays in his characters, always struggling between their tough past, uncertain present and non-existent future.<\/p>\n

Certainly, there will be RIFF<\/span> 2017 masterclasses, such as those held by the screenwriter and documentarist Lise Birk Pedersen, and director of photography Luciano Tovoli. Tovoli, who was born in 1936, played a leading role among those who carried on the transformation of the lighting standards in Italian cinema in the 70\u2019s, by introducing studio-shot films to the authenticity of reportage photography.<\/p>\n
