The 23rd edition of the prestigious Udine Far East Film Festival came to an end on Friday night.
The Festival, that every (normal) year opens at the end of April, was forced to postpone the event due to the COVID19 emergency. While cinemas reopened in Italy, FEFF23 took place FROM 24 JUNE TO 2 JULY in a hybrid form at Visionario and Cinema Centrale and ONLINE too, in partnership with the streaming platform MYmovies.it
