Orvieto Cinema Fest viene quindi proposto come festival cinematografico di cortometraggi con lo scopo di promuovere nuovi registi e sceneggiatori, sia a livello nazionale che internazionale.
Vuole essere una scommessa che abbia il potere di coinvolgere l'intera città di Orvieto e oltre.
Le due ideatrici e gli altri giovani orvietani lavoratori che hanno collaborato al progetto hanno deciso di riportare nella loro città le esperienze maturate nelle varie città di adozione (Milano, Roma, Bologna, Firenze).
L'obiettivo dell'iniziativa è anche quello di far rivivere il desiderio e l'impegno dei giovani in città e sentirsi parte di un progetto più ampio al servizio di tutti. L'unione della passione per la settima arte con la bellezza della città medievale può essere il punto di partenza per una rinascita del fermento culturale.

The Festival provides training and support programs with theoretical and practical tools for audiovisual production to those who join this initiative. We refer to teachers and students from schools, institutions, neighborhood headquarters, organizations or groups who wish to participate.
This experience became a much larger phenomenon around the initially proposed Film Festival. We are motivated by the need to consolidate a space that seeks to generate identity, value culture, emphasis on human relationships and also commercial links that derive from this massive meeting that can be used to make goods, services and trades visible in pursuit of profit. mutual of the community.
Another important point is to strengthen the ties of our community with those people and groups that come to our city from both nearby towns and also from other cities and provinces of our country summoned by the social event that the Festival represents.
We will use the Festival as a construction tool committed to our social context and in accordance with sustainable production mechanisms considering current communication channels and technology. We will approach the audiovisual understood as an object to think about and in constant transformation.
It is necessary, from our intervention, to guarantee access to a symbolic language, essential to navigate the world around us and construct the images and sounds of our time, this being a necessary task for the development of society, the strengthening of democracy , equity and access to work.
