### **ITA** ### **Kino Movement Milano** in collaborazione con il Centro Culturale **Slow Mill** organizza il quarto Kino Kabaret di Milano. ### **MOVIMENTO “KINO”** Kino è un movimento cinematografico internazionale, consistente nel fare film senza budget, in uno spirito di mutuo aiuto, non concorrenza, libertà e benevolenza. Il suo motto è: “Fai bene con niente, fai meglio con poco, ma fallo ora”. Questo movimento è iniziato a Montreal, Quebec (Canada) nel febbraio 1999 con Kino Montreal e ora conta circa 100 cellule attive in tutto il mondo. I partecipanti – che sono chiamati i Kinoïtes (i Kinetici) – si incontrano in due tipi di eventi, gli Screenings mensili e i Kino Kabarets, per realizzare cortometraggi in un arco di tempo limitato, che va da 24, 48 ore a pochi giorni. Aperti sia ai professionisti che ai dilettanti, questi eventi sono spazi di creazione, senza censure o concorrenza, che consentono sia ai dilettanti di migliorarsi, sia ai professionisti di approfondire la propria ricerca artistica. Ipartecipanti al **Kino Kabaret di Milano** quindi, cineasti e attori, si riuniranno per realizzare cortometraggi in 48 ore. Questi film saranno poi presentati direttamente al pubblico alla fine dello scadere del tempo a disposizione. Per maggiori informazioni leggere i **[Principi ufficiali dei gruppi che affermano di appartenere al movimento Kino](https://www.slowmill.it/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Principi-ufficiali-Kino-Kabaret.pdf)**. ### **Programma del weekend:** **Ritrovo: 13 marzo ore 18.00** I cineasti e le cineaste (regia, direzione della fotografia, montaggio, sceneggiatura, suono, trucco, scenografia, musiche) e gli attori e le attrici si ritroveranno il 13 marzo alle ore 18.00 per registrarsi all’evento e avere i dettagli sui cortometraggi da girare. Possono essere squadre già formate oppure squadre estemporanee che si incontrano al ritrovo e decidono di collaborare insieme. E’ necessario che chiunque abbia la propria attrezzatura. I film possono venire realizzati con qualsiasi camera capace di realizzare video in Full HD, smartphone compresi. **Consegna lavori: 15 marzo ore 19.00** I cortometraggi, della durata massima di 5 minuti (tassativi), dovranno essere consegnati nella loro forma completa al responsabile di Kino, entro l’orario stabilito, il quale provvederà a confermare l’avvenuta ricezione e l’inserimento nella scaletta di proiezione. **Proiezione finale: 15 marzo ore 21.00** La proiezione dei cortometraggi avverrà alla presenza di tutte le squadre e di un pubblico di interessati. Seguirà successivamente un dibattito libero tra i Kinetici e il pubblico per poter adempiere allo spirito di Kino: è attraverso la collaborazione tra i suoi membri che Kino trova il suo vero scopo: motivare, imparare e ispirare. Il responsabile del Kino Movement Milano, **Mateo Çili**, autore cinematografico, attore, regista e insegnante di recitazione, sarà a disposizione durante tutto il periodo delle 48 ore per poter aiutare i gruppi a realizzare al meglio i propri film. Gli spazi del centro culturale Slow Mill saranno disponibili come base per chiunque necessitasse di avere un appoggio per lasciare le attrezzature, mettere in carica le batterie, realizzare il montaggio, ecc… oppure semplicemente per rifocillarsi. Per potersi candidare come singoli o come squadra, scrivere una mail a **info@slowmill.it** elencando i membri della squadra e le mansioni, oppure, in caso di singoli, comunicando il ruolo che si intende esercitare. **ENG** ### **Kino Movement Milan** in collaboration with the **Slow Mill** Cultural Center presents the fourth Kino Kabaret of Milan. **“KINO” MOVEMENT** Kino is an international film movement based on making films with no budget, in a spirit of mutual support, non-competition, freedom, and goodwill. Its motto is: *“Do well with nothing, do better with little, but do it now.”* This movement began in Montreal, Quebec (Canada) in February 1999 with Kino Montreal, and now includes around 100 active cells worldwide. Participants – called Kinoïtes (the Kinetics) – meet during two types of events: monthly Screenings and Kino Kabarets, to create short films within a limited time frame, ranging from 24 to 48 hours, or a few days. Open to both professionals and amateurs, these events are creative spaces without censorship or competition, allowing amateurs to improve and professionals to deepen their artistic exploration. At the Milan Kino Kabaret, filmmakers and actors will gather to make short films in 48 hours. These films will then be shown directly to the public at the end of the time limit. For more information, read the official Principles of the groups claiming to be part of the Kino movement. *** **Weekend Schedule:** **Meeting: March 13th at 6:00 PM** Filmmakers (directing, cinematography, editing, screenwriting, sound, makeup, set design, music) and actors will meet on March 13th at 6:00 PM to register for the event and get the details about the short films to be made. Teams can be pre-formed or spontaneously assembled on site. Everyone must bring their own equipment. Films can be made with any camera capable of recording Full HD video, including smartphones. **Submission: March 15th at 7:00 PM** The short films, with a *strict* maximum length of 5 minutes, must be submitted in their final form to the Kino coordinator by the set time. The coordinator will confirm receipt and inclusion in the screening schedule. **Final Screening: March 15th at 9:00 PM** The screening will take place in the presence of all the teams and an interested audience. A free discussion between the Kinetics and the public will follow, in line with the spirit of Kino: through collaboration among its members, Kino fulfills its true purpose—to motivate, learn, and inspire. The coordinator of Kino Movement Milan, Mateo Çili, filmmaker, actor, and acting teacher, will be available throughout the 72 hours to assist teams in making the best films possible. The Slow Mill cultural center spaces will be available as a base for anyone needing a place to store equipment, charge batteries, edit footage, etc., or simply to grab a bite and relax. To apply as an individual or as a team, send an email to **info@slowmill.it**, listing team members and their roles, or—if applying individually—specify the role you’d like to take on.

**The Listening Room — First Gathering** So much of life happens in loud spaces and quick conversations that never quite go beneath the surface. The Listening Room is meant to be the opposite of that — a quieter space where people can slow down, talk honestly, and actually listen to one another. For this first gathering, we’ll meet in a small group and explore a simple conversation prompt together. The goal isn’t debate or performance — just thoughtful conversation and the chance to connect with others in a genuine way. Our prompt for this gathering will be: **When have you felt truly seen or understood by another person?** Everyone will have the opportunity to share if they’d like, but there’s absolutely no pressure — listening is just as valuable as speaking here. We’re keeping the group intentionally small so the conversation can feel relaxed and natural. Looking forward to meeting you. — Benny

We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
