The Ferrara Film Festival is one of the fastest growing film festival in the World and, after just five editions, the fastest growing in Italy. It's the film festival of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Ferrara, one of the most breathtaking cities in Europe.
The Ferrara Film Festival is a global film competition, that includes the Golden Dragon Awards Ceremony, world and european premieres, movie themed collateral events, charity galas, talk shows and great parties. In 2019 we had 10,000 people in attendance and, in 2020, we held a special edition with great success (and in total safety) with all the limitations of Covid-19. Our media campaign reached over 5,000,000 people.
In 2020 we were one of the very few film festivals in Italy that had a "live" edition. For us, the theatrical experience is at the top of our priorities: great films should be seen on the big screen, not on a computer. The Ferrara Film Festival was founded by producer, director and international show-business entrepreneur Maximilian Law, spearheading a team of about 50 people.
