This edition of the Venice Film Festival will present certain changes, which have become necessary as a result of the sanitary protocols imposed by the Covid-19 emergency.
The line-up in fact confirms the competitive sections Venezia 77 and Orizzonti, which will maintain their usual procedures and format, as will the Out of Competition section, and Biennale College Cinema. The screenings will take place in the theatres where they have been traditionally held on the Lido, adopting all the safety measures established by the competent authorities for the health emergency and in force on the date of the event.
The 77th Venice Film Festival this year will forego organizing the Sconfini section, with the purpose of guaranteeing the greatest possible number of seats for the repeat screenings of the films in the main sections confirmed above.
To ensure safe conditions for holding the Venice Film Festival, la Biennale di Venezia will comply with all anti Covid-19 protocols for health care and safety procedures, to protect public health.
