Matilda de Angelis, Marco Ponti, Francesco Scianna and Ilenia Pastorelli are just some of the protagonists of the forty-eighth edition of the Giffoni Film Festival, scheduled from 20 to 28 July in Giffoni Valle Piana. The complete program will be presented at a press conference on Tuesday 10 July at the “Marina d'Arechi Salerno Port Village”, the structure designed by architect Santiago Calatrava. In the meantime, the first previews are emerging. Francesco Scianna will meet the public on Sunday 22 July, to talk about his experience as an actor. Born in Palermo thirty-six years ago, Scianna achieved international fame in 2009 thanks to the film “Baaria” by Giuseppe Tornatore, and then consolidated his success the following year with Vallanzasca by Michele Placido. On 23 July it will be the turn of director Marco Ponti and the young actress Matilda de Angelis, protagonist of his latest film, “Una vita spericolata”. Also very active in the music field, Ponti has directed videos/documentaries with Vasco Rossi, Lorenzo Jovanotti, Emma, Elisa and Giuliano Sangiorgi, in addition to having written screenplays for Disney comics, for the theater and for television. On July 25, it will be Ilenia Pastorelli's turn to meet the judges and Giffoners: the young Roman actress made her debut - directed by Gabriele Mainetti - with the acclaimed "Lo chiamavano Jeeg Robot", which earned her the David di Donatello for best leading actress in 2016. In the same year, together with Raoul Bova, she lent her face to the video clip of Biagio Antonacci One day, a song in homage to Pino Daniele. In 2017, she was chosen by Carlo Verdone to play the role of Luna in "Benedetta Follia", and has recently finished filming "Cosa fai a Capodanno!?", directed by Filippo Bologna, and "Non ci resta che il crimine", by Massimiliano Bruno.
