Terra Lenta Film Fest is an international film festival dedicated to environmental documentaries. The festival is based in Pignola (PZ), Basilicata, Italy.
The aim of the Festival is to promote independent and author documentary cinema, raise public and community awareness of environmental issues, foster cultural spaces for dialogue and learning, support multimedia research, and encourage eco-sustainable actions.
But that's not all...
is the intention to bring original artistic forms and offbeat culture, the experimentation of new ways of disseminating environmental issues through art and research. We believe that it is necessary to give space to a different form of divulgation, so critical, innovative and far from formalising; that's the reason why we set ourselves to support subjects with authentic contents and modes of expression.
The Festival was founded in 2024 as the evolution of a long-standing experience in the dissemination of cinema on environmental themes through independent film review in the high mountains, in order to promote the symbiosis between visual art and environmental research in unusual contexts, deliberately different from urban spaces.
