Parallel section modelled on Cannes Directors’ Fortnight marks 17th edition this year.
Giornate degli Autori’s (GdA) new artistic director Gaia Furrer makes Venice Film Festival history this year.
She’s the first woman to take the artistic reins of any of its official or parallel sections across its 70 years of existence.
Furrer admits to having mixed feelings about this achievement, telling Screen: “It’s an enormous honour but alongside a sense of pride, I also feel a certain displeasure. In all honesty, I’d prefer to be the 10th, 15th, 30th female artistic director at Venice not the first.
