The three-year special development project “The art of silence - Tribute to David Lynch” began on the opening night of RNFF 2016. An unpublished documentary was screened, David Lynch Documentary, which tells how during the 2007-2009 the American director has embarked on a tour of 16 countries in Europe, the Middle East and Latin America to talk about Creativity and Art. On this occasion the Italian referent Dr. Fatima Franco also presented the David Lynch Foundation and we began a project with Liceo Scientifico A. Oriani of Ravenna. During Ravenna Nightmare Film Fest 2017, in a meeting open to all Ravenna’s schools, we will talk about the project and will be shown movie extracts from director David Lynch.
