    All the films submitted will be screened for the first time ever -as a premiere- during the celebration of the Festival. The directors see the film for the first time at the same time as the audience, who will vote for their favourite film and soundtrack… yes, as the Super 8 is silent, you can add sound to the movie at the time of the live showing: with a CD, live dubbing actors, musicians, or whatever you want…
