Philosophical Film Festival – Philosophical Film Festival

* PFF DAILY PROGRAMME *

The 15th edition of PFF opens
the film-philosophy adventure with its signature selections of feature films, shorts, and video essays –
plus a few special treats!

RETROSPECTIVE: PASOLINI

For Pasolini, film was a gesture of
polemic and provocation —
a poetic-political act;
the vision of 15th PFF
is no different.
