The fifth edition of Milano Design Film Festival is about to start, with the special participation of guest curator Patricia Urquiola. A bridge between design, art and architecture, through an expressive language that celebrates creativity, this year is focused on "Portraits of Our Time" theme, also through the poster of Illustrator Noma Bar.

Quoting the introduction of the catalog "Today and yesterday walk in parallel now as never before. We move like Janus: focused on the immediate, aware that tomorrow with its load of innovations is the direction, attracted by the past as a refuge, sometimes as a source of inspiration. Time is our obsession: it is difficult to slow down. What we are missing is the depth of field. That is knowledge, emotion, astonishment. What we know is that it takes time to take care of beauty. Time to design, keep, understand, safeguard. Time to do, understand, innovate, learn and teach. Time to see. And review ".

Among the different screenings in program we suggest the world premiere of Valeria Parisi's film "Franco Albini: uno sguardo leggero", based on the life of the designer, on screen on Saturday October 21 at 12pm, Astra room. A portrait that honors his lightness, so personal, inquisitive, curious, weightless. A floating universe: the dream of a world without gravity, free of any possession. Which other best expression of “Rebirth philosophy”? Enjoy his imaginary world.
