Laterale is an international non competitive festival of cinematic art, completely self-financed, that takes place every year in June in Cosenza (Italy). The aim of the Festival is to enhance audio-visual innovative works and to be a place of meeting and discovery in which it is possible to show what usually is neglected or rejected because of the distance from the conventional way to do and to interpret the Cinema, by reserving particular attention will to young and independent filmmakers.
