Nuova Consonanza Association announces a call for audiovisual works.

The selected works will be presented during the 63rd edition of the Nuova Consonanza Festival, on a day to be held in Rome in December 2026 at Il Mattatoio di Roma – La Pelanda.

The call is open to all audiovisual authors and composers, regardless of nationality, and is reserved for those under 40 (born before December 31, 1987) in support of policies promoting emerging artists.

The works will be selected by an internal committee of Nuova Consonanza.
