The Citizen’s Lab, organized in collaboration with the Bolzano Film Festival Bozen (BFFB), continues its journey of exchanges and hybridizations between languages and practices. The cinema with its spaces and the meetings and confrontations that such spaces welcome, are the Lab of an active citizenship.

This year’s Lab proposes, for the first time in Italy, a pilot section “Poetic Justice” within the BFFB. The section is curated by Prof. Emanuela Fronza (University of Bologna) in collaboration with the research cluster “Law, Economy and Institution” of the Faculty of Economics and Management of the Free University of Bolzano.

For the presentations and individual contributions to our Lab we have chosen a less conventional format this time, an open-ended round table as the only institutional moment for exchange and self-presentation, a moment that will continue during the day and again on Saturday. We'll watch films and will continue talking, each in a language of their choice, more or less informally, knowing who we are and what we do... so, sorry for the nostalgics of the paper, but we expect a different type of engagement, an exchange that may lead to future conversations and, possibly, academic collaborations.
