Special mention to the most significant entry concerning the relationship between humankind and Nature, with a particular focus on the valorisation of ancient crafts and traditions that have fallen into disuse and which, in a world continuously evolving and increasingly industrialised, could promote production modes more respectful of the environment and landscape, in line with the contemporary cultural climate inspired by a sustainable and circular economy.

The Ermanno Olmi Award jury is composed as follows: 2 members appointed by the City of Bergamo, 1 member appointed by the Olmi family, 1 member appointed by FIC – Federazione Italiana Cineforum, 1 member appointed by Bergamo Film Meeting Onlus.

The winners’ announcement and award ceremony will be held on December 10th, 2020, at the Auditorium in Piazza della Libertà, Bergamo, or another suitable venue. Should there be still, on the appointed date, containment measures due to the Covid-19 emergency, the award ceremony and the screening of the finalist films will be broadcast online, on a dedicated streaming platform.
