Proiezione Scirocco e il Regno dei Venti di Benoît Chieux

**Scirocco and the Kingdom of Winds by Benoît Chieux (Animated Film for Everyone)**

"The Kingdom of Winds" is Juliette and Carmen's favorite book. One day, the two girls find a secret passage that takes them into the world described in the story, and upon crossing it, they transform into cats. Captured and separated, will the protagonists of the animated film find a way to return home and regain their human forms?

**SOME INFO ABOUT THE CINEMA IN FREEDOM FESTIVAL**

On June 19, 2025, L'ARMATA BRANCALEONE reopened the doors of the ExpostModerno arena for the CINEMA IN FREEDOM FESTIVAL 2025.

During the festival, feature films and short films for young people and adults will be presented, and numerous meetings between authors and the public will be organized. The entire event will consist of a series of weekly appointments that will accompany you throughout the summer, until mid-September.

This is an experiment in a participatory showcase, bringing together associations and more, creating a series of screenings for everyone, truly everyone, including your little ones. The Arena is also Pet Friendly.

We, the volunteers, will be in the arena to welcome you along with the numerous organizations that have chosen to collaborate with us:
