\n\tThe sidebar, and its accompanying Italian cinema section Venice Nights, includes 25 world premieres, more than half of which (14) are directed by women. <\/p>\n

\nMy Notes on Mars<\/em> from Hungarian director Lili Horv\u00e1t (Preparations to Be Together for an Unknown Period of Time<\/em>) will open Venice Days, screening in competition. Horv\u00e1t\u2019s English-language debut stars Mackenzie Davis and Rupert Friend in the story of a young scientist who mysteriously disappears only to show up weeks later at her own memorial service with no memory of what happened.<\/p>\n

\n\tKuba Dorabialski\u2019s Agata the Writer<\/em>, starring Mia Wasikowska as an Australian author in Sarajevo, will also premiere in competition, alongside Pauline Julier and Nicolas Chapoulier\u2019s period drama The Indies<\/em>; Boris Had\u017eija and Hoda Taheri\u2019s hybrid fiction-documentary I Plant My Hand in the Garden<\/em>; and Nicola Sorcinelli\u2019s debut Balcanica<\/em>, the only Italian title in competition, about an Afghan father and son who, after music is banned in their country, try to flee to Europe. <\/p>\n

\n\tOther highlights include Mar\u00eda Aparicio\u2019s Sadness Sometimes, Other Times Revolt<\/em>, a drama centered on two Argentines in Madrid; Mykyta Gibalenko\u2019s debut Camouflage<\/em>, about a young Ukrainian in Germany whose separation from home is transformed by Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine; a Damilola Orimogunje\u2019s family melodrama Dear Ajayi<\/em>, which will be the first Nigerian movie to screen in Venice Days competition.<\/p>\n

\n\tL\u00e9a Domenach\u2019s Man\u2019s Skin<\/em>, a queer feminist musical comedy set in the Italian Renaissance and featuring Catherine Deneuve, will close Venice Days, screening out of competition.<\/p>\n

\n\tAn all-woman jury, headed by Spanish filmmaker Carla Sim\u00f3n (Alcarr\u00e0s<\/em>, Summer 1993<\/em>) with Italian director Sara Fgaier (Weightless<\/em>), and Hania Mrou\u00e9, director of Beirut\u2019s Metropolis Cinema, will pick the winner of the GdA Director\u2019s Award, which carries a \u20ac20,000 ($23,000) cash prize to be split between the director and the film\u2019s international distributor. The Lido audience will vote for the Audience Award, while the Europa Cinemas jury will choose the Europa Cinemas Label from the European films in the lineup.<\/p>\n

\n\tRoberta Torre\u2019s Scarpe rotte<\/em> will open Venetian Nights, the sidebar\u2019s Italian cinema program. The film, starring Barbara Ronchi, is freely inspired by the life of Natalia Ginzburg and is set in wartime Rome. <\/p>\n

\n\tMiu Miu Women\u2019s Tales, a short film anthology series created by fashion brand Miu Miu, returns to Venice Days with Discipline<\/em>, a new short from Mona Fastvold (The Testament of Ann Lee<\/em>) and Avec Kim<\/em>, from French auteur Claire Denis (Beau Travail<\/em>), the latter starring Suzanne Lindon and Kim Gordon.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 Venice Days will also include talks, industry events and public programs at the Casa degli Autori and Sala Laguna. Among them are the return of #confronti, the fourth edition of the Declaration of Filmmakers, a soundtracks event organized with ACMF, the second edition of Africa Chiama, and a new collaboration with Venezia CULT that will bring cartoonists Leo Ortolani and Dave McKean to the Lido.<\/p>\n
