Festival del Film Locarno 2019-2021
The promotion of cultural diversity is anchored in the Swiss Constitution as part of sustainable development. Switzerland’s support of artists from Africa, Latin America, Asia and Eastern Europe is contributing to diversity in the analysis of social issues ensuring fundamental values in a democratic system. SDC’s partnership with the Locarno Festival supports independent filmmaking through the special Section Open Doors. Participants from Southeast Asia gain visibility, networks, knowledge, and opportunities for film production.

Contesto |
Engaging in the support of an independent art scene also means engaging in strengthening freedom of expression and social debate. Film is an interesting vehicle and form of art but at the same time complicated in the production and distribution.
SDC engages in supporting art and culture as contribution to the implementation of the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions 2005. This includes the support for international mobility of artists and the participation of artists from the South and East in international art and culture. |
Obiettivi | The overall goal is to contribute to the strengthening and development of an independent local and regional filmproduction in Southeast Asia (Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand, Mongolia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines) as regional focus for the upcoming three years. |
