About Prospettive

Cineforum Prospettive is the travelling documentary film series that crosses the villages of the Alto Fermano Apennines, with one of its most heartfelt stops at the Teatro del Falco in Montefalcone Appennino, in the Marche region. Promoted by the Associazione Piccola Scuola Rurale, the series brings films capable of telling stories of territories, work, and possible futures to the cinema, followed by public meetings with directors, scholars, and residents. A free cultural initiative that revitalizes the spaces of the inland areas and focuses on the participation of mountain communities.

A film series for the inland areas

Cineforum Prospettive is the cycle of screenings and meetings that brings documentary cinema to the villages of the Alto Fermano Apennines, in the province of Fermo, in the Marche region. In Montefalcone Appennino, one of the smallest and most evocative villages in the region, the events take place at the Teatro del Falco, the municipal cultural space overlooking the Sibillini Mountains.

The series uses documentary as a tool for critical analysis of the present, offering films that address central themes such as the environment, memory, inequalities, migrations, rights, and the future of communities, constantly linking the global dimension with the local one.

The Impagini Project

Cineforum Prospettive is part of the "Impagini: cinema and books in the inland areas" project, which involves the Municipalities of Santa Vittoria in Matenano, Amandola, Montefalcone Appennino, Montelparo, and Smerillo, in the SNAI inland area of the Alto Fermano Apennines. The project consists of two actions: a literary festival and a travelling film forum with five screenings hosted in rotation in theatres, municipal halls, and cultural spaces in the various municipalities, enhancing structures often underutilized after the 2016 earthquake.

Cinema and Participation

Each screening is accompanied by a public discussion: after the credits, directors, authors, scholars, and residents engage in dialogue with the audience about regenerative agriculture, work, youth and participation, and the future of mountain communities. Cinema thus becomes an opportunity for collective meeting and reflection, perfectly integrated into the identity of the small Apennine towns.

Organizers

The series is promoted by the Associazione Piccola Scuola Rurale, the lead organization of the project, with the support of the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Ascoli Piceno and the collaboration of Cooperativa NuovaRicerca.AgenziaRes, Associazione Equilibri APS, and Spazio Betti APS, with the patronage of the Municipality of Montefalcone Appennino.

Why Participate

  • Author documentary films with free admission
  • Meetings with directors and local protagonists
  • An opportunity to discover Montefalcone Appennino and the Sibillini villages
  • A cultural initiative that gives a voice to the inland areas of the Marche region

Admission is free until seats are filled: a valuable event for those who love cinema that tells stories of places and people.
