« First and foremost, cinema is light that brightens darkness: in a world that seems to be heading towards its end (a recurring theme among the films proposed in this selection), this film offers a gesture of resistance against this darkness and invites to continue the memory and persistence of the moving images in our memory. For us, cinema is when “these eyes but close / To look within,” to quote a verse by the poet Byron, born a century before cinema came into being.» Rita Azevedo Gomes, Carlos Casas, Tommaso Ragno members of the jury of the Pesaro Film Festival, 2022
