DOC GRUMELLO VILLA DEL GRUMELLO
In collaboration with the Villa del Grumello Association
Overlooking the southernmost part of the lake and with the lights of the city in the background, the Grumello film festival reflects on the relationship between natural elements and the ever-evolving human-urban synthesis, on how human ingenuity can facilitate dialogue between these dimensions today. Four documentaries exploring this relationship and offering a glimpse into a fragile balance that must be safeguarded. For the 2021 edition, the festival will organise the four events in collaboration with four European documentary festivals, with the aim of internationalising the programme and expanding the network of collaborations beyond the Italian territory.
With the idea of offering a glimpse of global landscapes and themes we have involved the following European film festivals, following the cardinal points in a geographical approach: North - DOK Leipzig (Leipzig, Germany); South - Thessaloniki Documentary Festival (Thessaloniki, Greece); West - Doclisboa International Film Festival (Lisbon, Portugal); East - Beldocs Documentary Film Festival (Belgrade, Serbia) - each presenting a documentary on the theme of the festival.

The spa town of Bad Oeynhausen: Every day, thousands of trucks roll through the city centre and over the B 61 federal road which connects the A2 and A30 motorways, respectively Warsaw and Amsterdam. When the threat of losing its status as a health resort looms on the horizon, which means losing the inviting title of 'Bad', something has to change: A bypass is to be built.
