It is open until January 10, 2027 The call for participation in the eighth edition of the Asincronie Festival , dedicated to the languages of contemporary documentary cinema, will take place in Sassari next June, with previews in May and an OFF section in the fall. The festival is conceived and curated by 4CaniperStrada , a group of filmmakers and photographers.
Documentary and audio documentaries of any length produced after 2024 and never screened in Sardinia are eligible to participate. Sardinian directors are required to premiere their work in the city and province of Sassari.
By "creative documentary" we mean works of observation, confrontation, or comparison with the so-called "reality" of the inhabited world, beyond and "beyond the images of reality with their extraordinary precision." Works that question life from the present: daring to create poetry, attempting critique.
The Festival is a meeting between authors, directors, works, and the public through a program of screenings and regional previews of feature films by international directors, tributes to the masters of documentary cinema, short films, medium-length films, and audio documentaries by young Italian and international authors, and collateral events such as photography exhibitions, performances, workshops, and meetings.
Asincronie is among the leading festivals in Sardinia dedicated to contemporary documentary, offering a window on the world through the unique perspectives of filmmakers who engage with the ethics and aesthetics of telling the story of reality.
