The Municipality has a population of 1.3 million. The Milan metropolitan area has a population of 7.4 million. Milan is one of the major cultural centers of Italy and is also renowned as one of the world capitals of design and fashion. ‘I’ve Seen Films’ takes place in the Skyline Multiplex venue, on the third floor of the huge Centrosarca Shopping Center, between Milan and Sesto San Giovanni. The complex offers the best comfort thanks to a large free parking lot with a 2,500 car capability. Skyline is a film theater complex (with 10 screening rooms) built to meet the audience needs. It has all the advantages of a modern and new-concept multiplex: the maxi screens, the sophisticated audio and video technology, the extremely comfortable seats developed according to the most advanced ergonomic standards give an emotion-packed feeling to its audience. But most of all, it has a very keen programming structure that takes into account all kinds of tastes: not only the commercial hits, but also author’s works, special initiatives such as thematic screenings, premieres, original language movies, meetings with directors… And furthermore, exclusive services such as the Maluna film bookstore and the ‘baby club’ addressed to kids and their parents. The Skyline Multiplex is a member of FICE, the Italian Film d’Essai Society. 10 I’VE SEEN FILMS 2008 International Short Film Festival Fratelli Fratelli Genre: Fiction Year of Production: 2007 Runtime: 30’ Country: Italy Original format: 16 mm - Color Language: Italian Cast: Director: Andrea Di Bari Screenplay: Guido Fiandra, Andrea Di Bari Cinematography: Rocco Marra Editing: Andrea Maguolo Music: Massimiliano Lazzaretti, Massimo Ferlito, Riccardo Prestianni Primo Reggiani, Simone Gandolfo, Giuseppe Milazzo Andreani, Alessandra Carlesi, Nello Mascia, Giorgia Traselli, Lina Bernardi.
