"With this edition we continue in our commitment to give space to new Italian cinema, to young authors and to stories that speak to us closely, within unique landscapes such as that of Tavolara, where cinema also becomes a collective experience of beauty and thought, with an eye always attentive to young people and training", comments the president of the Argonauti Association Marco Navone, assisted in the organization of the festival by Viviana Gandini.
