After a very successful first edition, the “Sorrento Film & Food Festival” will be back from January 1 to 6, with the promotion of “The Artists’ Club Italia,” the patronage of the Mediterranean Parliamentary Assembly, the Campania Region and the City of Sorrento, with the support of the Film and Audiovisual Department of the Ministry of Culture. US actor Daniel McVicar will once again chair the event alongside the Italian-American actor Luca Riemma, who will be in charge of the Artistic Direction.

“Our goal is to experience once again the happy combination of film and food at one of the most beautiful locations in the world,” explained McVicar, as he presented the initiative unfolding between the Armida Film Theater and the most renowned restaurants of Sorrento, and attended by some of the biggest Italian and international artists, together with some real cuisine master chefs.

The free-of-charge festival screenings will let visitors and tourists enjoy a number of feature films,  documentaries, and short movies revolving around the relationship between cinema and food, as well as international productions selected through the digital platform Filmfreeway.com as the event will especially culminate on January 1 and 5 - New Year’s Day and the Closing Night of the festival.
