Venice, Italy – August 2024 – The CGS Jury (Cinecircoli Giovanili Socioculturali, national association of film culture) will be at the eighty-first edition of the Venice Film Festival (from 28 August to 7 September) with 26 participants, mostly young people aged 18 and over, from the local Circoli in Alassio, Genoa, Padua, Ancona, Cagliari, Taranto and Sesto San Giovanni. They will be protagonists of a film criticism workshop, coordinated by the National Governing Council with the support of CGS Marche. For more than forty years, the Venice Cinema Laboratory has been one of the most interesting moments of the CGS national formation, precisely because of the coincidence with the most prestigious and "ancient" Film Festival in the world and the opportunity to participate in it from the privileged perspective of accredited members. For 27 years, the work of the Cinema Language Laboratory has been associated, for the participating group, with the task of Jury of the "Magic Lantern" Prize, recognized by the Film Festival among the Collateral Awards, which will be awarded by the Sociocultural Youth Cinecircles to the most significant film for issues related to youth and education. The activities will be documented on the social profiles of the National CGS Association and the reviews produced within the Laboratory will be published on the website www.sentieridicinema.it
