The 11th edition of the Italo-Serbian Film Festival is scheduled to take place from September 17 to 21, 2026, at the Cineteca Jugoslava in Belgrade. Organized by the cultural association ‘Excellence International’ in collaboration with the Cineteca Jugoslava and the Italian Cultural Institute in Belgrade, the event aims to foster deeper connections between the two nations.
Festival director Gabriella Carlucci noted that the event has evolved over eleven years into a platform for building economic, tourism, and cultural networks between Italy and Serbia. Beyond film screenings, this year’s program includes collateral events focused on promoting tourism, fashion, and new co-productions, supported by a signed bilateral agreement.
The festival features various industry professionals, including director and actor Fortunato Cerlino, producer Luigi Saccà, and director Marko Novaković. Representatives from the Serbian Ministry of Tourism and the Italian Ministry of Tourism also participated in the event's presentation.
