As festival director
Andrea Morghen has been working as the festival director of Religion Today Film Festival for two years now. As the festival director, Andrea tries to understand the social structure of different countries through their films; because he believes films can help bring positive changes all over the world.
When he was asked about his thoughts on religions he replied: “Religion is something very universal, where ever you go in the world.”
“Presence of religion is subtly shown in the films as well.”
Andrea also wrote and directed five social-themed documentaries as his main focus point is to bring encouraging impacts on the society through films.
“I believe that films can really affect the society for the better, because a good film can change the way people think.”
As an optimistic person, Andrea believes that: “As festival director or film-makers, it is our responsibility to depict love and humanity in documentaries or feature films to bring changes in the world.”
“Countries like Israel, Iran or Bangladesh portray their societies in films and those societies are highly influenced by their religions.”
“In some countries religions shape the society, and makes lives of women miserable, so if we could address such issues through films, something positive would come out eventually,” he added.
