The digital screenings of Venezia 78 will be scheduled simulating an actual theatrical screening and film will be available for the following five days.
“It is a special opportunity for worldwide audience – highlight la Biennale – to discover directors and movies emboding the most innovative aestetich and expressive trends of international cinema”. “Our streaming service for Venice Film Festival – explains Gianluca Guzzo, MyMovies founder and Ceo – will screen 38 world premiere protected by the highest standard of security and connection approved by the major distribution companies as well”. In the last 18 months MYmovies has become a rock solid landmark of film streaming. “We started to react to the first lockdown – Guzzo explains –. Being locked at home all day, we became aware that there was an audience who missed arthouse cinema that was not able to find its way on the streaming platforms. Then we started working with some distribution companies and started screening a movie every night restarting our platform. The project went on and we granted 500.000 hours of streaming with an attendance of 700.000 users. We supported with our service more than a hundred film festivals with a box office of more than 500.000 euro. The mission of MyMovies has always been driving users to arthouse cinema and we are developing our platform to improve this goal”.
