This progress has also been made possible thanks to the support of the Emilia-Romagna Region, Emilia-Romagna Film Commission, the Municipalities of Bologna and Modena, as well as Foundations and partners who have backed the project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">A new phase now begins: 24FRAME Future Film Fest is seeking new investors and strategic partners interested in further developing a platform that has become a national point of reference for animation.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, other activities continue. Sunday Anime and Future Film Kids screenings will go on, alongside the Advanced Training Course in 2D Paperless Cutout Animation and the \u201cCinema and Images for Schools\u201d projects dedicated to students in Bologna and Modena.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col text-sm pb-25\">\n<section class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none [--shadow-height:45px] has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none has-data-writing-block:-mt-(--shadow-height) has-data-writing-block:pt-(--shadow-height) [&amp;:has([data-writing-block])&gt;*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\" data-turn-id=\"request-69c399dc-8398-8331-a41a-caccac0c2221-3\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-12\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\" data-turn=\"assistant\">\n<div class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-10 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-sm,calc(var(--spacing)*6))] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-lg,calc(var(--spacing)*16))] px-(--thread-content-margin)\">\n<div class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-1\" dir=\"auto\" tabindex=\"0\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"19d80f00-b51e-4dbf-bc73-fd9fb574f75e\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-5-3\" data-turn-start-message=\"true\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full wrap-break-word light markdown-new-styling\">\n<p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"36\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.futurefilmfestival.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/eng_PDF_CS-24FRAME_March25.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to read the press release<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recent months, we have received numerous requests for updates on the upcoming edition from authors, industry professionals, and audiences.
