Festival del Film Locarno 2022-2024


As part of sustainable development, the promotion of cultural diversity is rooted in the Swiss Constitution. Switzerland’s support for artists from Africa, Latin America, Asia, and Eastern Europe is promoting the diversity of analysis of social issues, thereby ensuring the fundamental values ​​of the democratic system. The partnership between SDC and the Locarno Film Festival supports independent film production through the special section Open Doors. Participants from Latin America gain visibility, network, knowledge and opportunities for filmmaking.

Le projet en bref
Contexte Supporting the independent art scene also means strengthening freedom of speech and social debate. Film is an interesting carrier and art form, but at the same time, its production and distribution are also very complicated. SDC is committed to supporting art and culture as a contribution to the implementation of UNESCO’s 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions. This includes supporting the international movement of artists and the participation of artists from the south and east in the international art and culture.
Objectifs

The overall goal is to contribute to the strengthening and development of an independent local and regional filmproduction in countries of the south and the east.

The regional focus for the upcoming three years 2022-2024 will be Latin America (Belize, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Grenada, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Montserrat, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, Saint Kitts & Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, Venezuela).
