The “Firenze Archeofilm - Festival Internazionale del Cinema di Archeologia Arte Ambiente”, is organized by Archeologia Viva - Giunti Editore (first archaeological magazine in Italy since 1982).
It's held every year in March in Florence (Cinema La Compagnia), Italy.
The aim of the festival is to promote documentary film on archaeological, historical, ethnographic, artistic and environmental themes (documentaries, films and animated films of any length up to 60 minutes).
Firenze Archeofilm is a widespread festival: a network of cinematographic events we create all over Italy (Aquileia, Taormina, Varese, Cuneo, Grosseto,...) whose purpose is the promotion of the films in archaeological sites.
All our festivals are free-entry events.
