There are more and more films selected. The Minister of Tourism and entertainment Carlo Pastorino quadruples the funds for the festival  thanks to an open letter sent  to  newspapers by Claudio Gubitosi and during his visit to Giffoni, Mr Pastorino promises a greater commitment in the future.

American actor GORDON MITCHELL comes to Giffoni while the organizers meet the Iranian responsibles for Child's Cultural development, thus giving way to a friendship with Iranian filmmakers currently alive and kicking.
