Spring is in the air. Traditional folk songs can be heard from an abandoned hotel in the woods. But behind this deceptively idyllic scene lurks a devastating truth. TAKE visited the set of Elisa, the latest film by Leonardo Di Costanzo. The production of this film is supported by the IDM Film Commission Südtirol.
Ten projects have been selected to receive funding from the IDM Film Fund & Commission as part of the second call of 2025: short films are well represented in this round, with a total of five projects receiving support. For the first time ever, two animation projects are among the selected productions. In addition, funding has been awarded for the production of two theatrical features and one documentary. Two feature film projects have secured funding for pre-production.
From 15 to 21 May 2025, the IDM Film Commission once again attended the Marché du Film on the Croisette in Cannes for a week of networking, panels, and industry events. Among others, a delegation from South Tyrol/Südtirol joined the ImpAct Lab.
In the summer of 2017, Renate Ranzi and Birgit Oberkofler assumed joint leadership of IDM Film Fund & Commission. Following a restructuring of IDM Film Commission Südtirol/Alto Adige in 2019, Birgit Oberkofler continued to lead the commission on her own. In May 2025, Renate Ranzi will take over as Head of the IDM Film Commission Südtirol.
