3300 kids from 41 countries arrived at Cittadella del Cinema for Giffoni Experience 43rd edition, that will take place from 19th to 28th July. It’s like a colourful party, a celebration of cultures that interwine each others; the cinematographic language connects kids and youth, ready to live the unique experience that is Giffoni Festival.
It will be a brillian opening, with the preview of one of the most long-awaited movies: Monsters University, by Disney Pixar. There were so many reservations that the tickets were all sold out in a few minutes. The 3D movie, directed by Dan Scalon, is the new installment of Salley and Mike’s adventures saga, distributed by Walt Disney Company Italia and it will hit the theatres on 21st August. Francesco Mandelli and Fabrizio Biggio will be in Giffoni on occasion of the preview; they provided their voices to the double-headed character of Terry&Terry Perry for the Italian version. Other exceptional voices for the Italian dubbing are those of: Martina Stoessel, Lodovica Comello, the young Disney Channel stars of the cult series Violetta. They provided their voices to the PYTON NU KAPPA (PNK) sisters: Carrie and Britney. Dressed in pink, the apparently sweet and inoffensive PNK can turn into frightening creatures for the annual Scare Games.
Prequel to Monsters & Co, the movie tells the story of how the freshmen Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan, known as “Sulley”, first met. Their very competitive attitude has made them to be expelled from the exclusive MU program for scarers. As if it was not enough, in order to sort things out, they will have to work together, teaming up with a bunch of monsters on the loose.
One of the talents' names on the list for the first day is that of actress Stefania Rocca, who will present the short movie titled “Osa” to young jurors, dedicated to the problems deriving from imposed marriages, shot for ActionAid, of which she is also the sposor.
