11 short films dedicated to the development goals of the 2030 agenda

Accademia Dimitri before… the movie

At Cinema Lux in Massagno, starting from November 3, short films created by the students of Accademia Dimitri and dedicated to sustainability will be screened. One short will be shown before each film on the program.

These theatrical scripts are the result of the independent work of first- and second-year Bachelor students, and they stage 11 of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. First screened at the Swiss Pavilion during Expo Dubai 2021, the short films transport the viewer through visual metaphors into a world where the Sustainable Development Goals are all achieved—while still preserving their utopian quality.

Scripted, filmed, edited, and post-produced by a team of professionals led by Swiss director Stina Werenfels, the videos are part of a project by the Swiss School of Public Health (SSPH+).

The initiative with Cinema Lux in Massagno arose from the collaboration with the Ticino Film Commission, an organization committed to raising awareness of sustainability themes and implementing them in the artistic field.
