Born of a collaboration with the Trieste Film Festival, this edited collection examines the bidirectional relationship between film criticism and film festivals, treating them as apparatuses of mediation and as engines for the production of value, discourse, and visibility. Its horizon is both diachronic and forward-looking: from historical genealogies to the transformations of the digital ecosystem, with attention to how festivals shape the life of films, canon formation, and professional practices. To broaden research and foster interdisciplinary discussion, the contributions adopt historical, theoretical, comparative, and ethnographic approaches, privileging original case studies, unpublished sources, and innovative methods. Cross-cutting themes include selection and awards politics; forms of programming and curation; relations with industry, television, platforms, and immersive media; as well as new forms of critical writing (from print to digital formats). Taken together, the essays outline an “interlaced” discursive framework: festivals as a critical apparatus and criticism as a curatorial practice.

Nato da una collaborazione con il Trieste Film Festival, la curatela indaga il legame biunivoco tra critica e festival del cinema, assumendoli come dispositivi di mediazione e di produzione di valore, discorsi e visibilità. L’orizzonte è diacronico e prospettico: dalle genealogie storiche alle trasformazioni dell’ecosistema digitale, con attenzione a come i festival incidano sulla vita dei film, sui canoni e sulle pratiche professionali. Per favorire l’allargamento della ricerca e la discussione interdisciplinare, i contributi adottano approcci storici, teorici, comparati ed etnografici, privilegiando casi di studio originali, fonti inedite e metodologie innovative. Temi trasversali includono politiche della selezione e dei premi, forme della programmazione e della curatela, relazioni con industria, televisione, piattaforme e media immersivi, nonché le nuove forme della scrittura critica (dal cartaceo ai formati digitali). L’insieme dei saggi delinea un quadro discorsivo "incrociato": i festival come dispositivo critiico e la critica come pratica curatoriale.

Abstract

Born of a collaboration with the Trieste Film Festival, this edited collection examines the bidirectional relationship between film criticism and film festivals, treating them as apparatuses of mediation and as engines for the production of value, discourse, and visibility. Its horizon is both diachronic and forward-looking: from historical genealogies to the transformations of the digital ecosystem, with attention to how festivals shape the life of films, canon formation, and professional practices. To broaden research and foster interdisciplinary discussion, the contributions adopt historical, theoretical, comparative, and ethnographic approaches, privileging original case studies, unpublished sources, and innovative methods. Cross-cutting themes include selection and awards politics; forms of programming and curation; relations with industry, television, platforms, and immersive media; as well as new forms of critical writing (from print to digital formats). Taken together, the essays outline an “interlaced” discursive framework: festivals as a critical apparatus and criticism as a curatorial practice.
