Every evening there will be the “Children’s Jury” which will award, on Saturday 25th, the prize for the “Best Animated Short Film for kids“.
All the activities of the program are free but be careful to always give priority to children!
The projections are coordinated by the Ass. “Semi di Carta”.
The exhibitions, located on the first floor of San Benedetto, are open from 6 pm to midnight from 21 to 25 August.
The schedule of planned activities may vary due to major forces.
We recommend that you consult this website for updates.
h.18.00 – Complesso di San Benedetto
Workshop by Beatrice Pucci
Three-dimensional zootrope
The three-dimensional zootrope is made up of figures in relief. You can see the movement thanks to two instruments that apparently seem unusual: a turntable and a strobe light. Using digital means it will be possible to produce a video that records the animation.

h.19.30 – Giardino dei Limoni di San Benedetto
Animated readings by Semi di Carta of Conversano.
Grat Grat Cirp Splash! by Kitty Crowter (Babalibri editore) conducted by Rossella Sisto
Little Giacomo is a good and obedient frog, but when night falls, fear is stronger than him.
He does not want to leave his mother’s embrace and wishes with all his heart that the story that his father tells him, sitting on his bed, never ends. The light in the corridor is on, but James is equally afraid. He feels so lonely and then, suddenly … Grat grat cirp splash. What will it be? He will discover it thanks to his dad and it will be a beautiful and reassuring surprise.
Followed by origami workshop.
