Comicron Film Festival
Emerging or unverified festival
Comicron is an international film festival in Pontelandolfo, Italy, devoted exclusively to comedy short films. Founded by filmmaker Ugo Gregoretti in 2013, it is notable for promoting the short film as an autonomous art form, discovering new talent, and presenting a distinctive comedy-focused program that can also include comic documentaries, animations, and music videos. Its significance in the festival circuit comes from its niche identity and its role as an alternative showcase for comic short cinema in a small-town setting.
