The Festival is based on the process of viewing works and the debate that accompanies them: circularity is its generative principle.
The Forums open the afternoons of the International Short Performance Competition, transforming the competition into a mechanism for the public reading of the works. These moments of dialogue are dedicated to connecting artists, board members, the Youth Jury, the Comizi group, and the audience. The plurality of voices—ranging from professional expertise to first-time viewing experiences—generates exchanges in which criteria, poetics, and production processes are made transparent and shared. The Forums confirm their role as a space where audience development, spectatorship support, and international and intercultural dialogue concretely intertwine. This atmosphere of exchange and encounter then continues informally during more convivial moments.
