IFA Scuola di Cinema
Film School
IFA Film School was founded fifteen years ago and has become a key reference point for film studies students. The school offers a learning environment that resembles an artisan workshop, setting itself apart from institutions focused on large enrollments.
Students at IFA Film School come from all over Italy to take part in two main programs: the annual Acting course and the biennial Cinema Alta Formazione course, which focuses on the professions behind the camera.
Over the years, IFA has developed a strong identity within the festival circuit, allowing its productions to flourish and gain recognition: Bangland (Premio SIAE 2015 – Giornate degli Autori – Mostra del Cinema di Venezia), This is Fine (Premio Bookciak, Azione! 2021), Riders (Best short at San Diego Italian Film Festival 2023, Best School Short Aprilia Film Festival)
