At the first edition of the Festa internatiozionale del cinema di Roma, which ended on October 21, 2006, Fredi M. Murer’s success movie “Vitus” won the audience award in the “Alice nella città” section. 800 children and teenagers made up the audience and enthusiastically endorsed the film among 16 other works presented. The award comes with a prize sum of 3,000 Euro.
The Auditorium della musica – designed by star architect Renzo Piano – serves as the headquarters of the filmfest, where, during the course of the day, the “Alice nella città” section takes up an important role. From early in the morning, thousands of school children are arriving for screenings at the large concert halls. Fredi M. Murer, who was in attendance and answered questions by a 50-children jury after the showing of his film on Thursday, accepted the prize today amid the applause of the young crowd.
