Locarno Spring Academy 2024
Francesco Manzato, born in 1996, lives in Milan after graduating in Modern Literature. Since 2020 he directed two documentaries characterized by a strong political and militant connotation. One on the hardcore punk scene and another one about the anti-fascist movement. In 2022 he directed the short film Letizia, which was selected in various European festivals. In 2024 he finalized Nero Argento, a short film that crosses fiction and documentary. Its world premiere is yet to come.
