Riservati Pictures Film Festival

This event is for everyone!
We don’t care about your background, your belief, your orientation, your previous life: nothing! We just care about the story.

If we think the movie is worth our festival, we will select it, if we don’t, we will reject it, it is as simple as that. Filmmaking taste, like any taste is subjective, so don't get discourage if you are not selected: you may be rejected by us and then win an Oscar next year, you'll never know!
