Rome Film Festival 2012

Rome Film Festival

Rome Film Festival

The 2012 edition of the Rome Film Festival will run from the to the of November, with most of the film shows based around the Auditorium in Rome.

Now in its seventh year, Rome's major film festival has undergone several apparent changes of name (or at least of branding), from RomeFilmFest to Cinema Festa Internazionale di Roma to its current Italian name Festival Internazionale del Film di Roma — In English it's now known simply as the Rome Film Festival.

The content too has changed: the early festivals drew criticism for being too American-centric, while more recently the festival has had a greater focus on Italian cinema and international films: in 2012, there are three Italian films and two American films in competition, with a jury chaired by Jeff Nichols. The full list of films in competition (not including two "'surprise films") looks like this:
