TerraLenta Film Fest

The first edition of the TerraLenta International Environmental Film Festival took place last week in the small village of Pignola, in Potenza, Italy.

The international premiere of our documentary could not have been more in keeping with ‘Mãos à Terra’: at a festival that was founded with great dedication and sensitivity to the themes explored in the film. As the name suggests, TerraLenta is linked to the Slow Food movement, which also originated in Italy in the 1980s. It is a festival full of character and closely connected to the local area.

We would like to thank the Fuorisentiero association, the festival’s organisers, and the whole team for this opportunity, as well as the charming village of Pignola for its warm welcome.

May this be the first of many editions of the TerraLenta Festival.
