Overview
The POV SEI UN FIORE - Natura Short Film Contest is a unique short film competition held in Bolzano, Italy, as part of the Trento Film Festival. Organized by BeYoung (UPAD) with support from the Autonomous Province of Bolzano, it challenges young filmmakers (14-35 years old) from Trentino-Alto Adige to create short films (max 3 minutes) from the point of view of a flower. This specific thematic constraint makes it notable for fostering creative storytelling within a highly imaginative framework, promoting youth engagement in filmmaking and environmental themes.
