For the seventh consecutive year, a selection of the last edition of Lo Schermo dell’Arte Film Festival is presented at the Teatrino di Palazzo Grassi, with documentaries dedicated to major figures of the art world and with films by artists. This year's edition features documentaries on Ettore Spalletti and Barbara Rubin, films by international artists such as Jeremy Deller and Masbedo.
