It all began in 2018 where the Lux Film Festival, basis and inspiration for first edition of the Aprilia Film Festival which took place in 2019.
The Festival intends to enhance and support the world of cinema and art at 360°, promoting the participation of filmmakers from all over the world and leaving maximum freedom of expression of genre and cinematic style.
Being a cultural event that involves various aspects of art, we wanted, already in previous editions, that it did not end with the mere proposal of quality cinema, but that it created a meeting point between the various forms of art: music, dance, painting, photography, handicrafts, poetry, which will in fact enliven the pre-evening, from 4 to 8 pm. Thanks to this careful mix of the various art forms, the festival has obtained a public response far above the our expectations, attracting people also from other municipalities and regions.
The project was born thanks to the cultural association COMIC HEART

(president Roberto Mincuzzi), with the patronage of the Lazio Region, the Province of Latina, the IMAIE, the Municipality of Aprilia and the Proloco, which offered particular support to the initiative, appreciating the strong territorial involvement promoted by the Festival. In fact, it is our intention – says its Artistic Director and founder – to promote the city of Aprilia and the Pontine area as an important hub of film culture at an international level and to create a meeting point where we can talk about cinema, exchange ideas or even have the opportunity to meet people with whom to create friendship and/or work ties.
