    Among those present was Mayor Pippo Midili, who was enthusiastic about the event and its cultural contribution to the city. At the centre laid the theme of beauty, understood as a profound expression of the culture proper to that cinema whose primary purpose is to convey messages of high cultural depth, such as to affect reality.
