Pianeta Fresco is the 2026 edition of CONERO FILM + ADV: one single day at the Ridotto del Teatro Le Muse, in Ancona. The title, which translates into English as "Fresh Planet", points to the real nature of our world, only temporarily bent to fit our imagination, and ready to come back as fresh as it was, as fresh as we can all be. It is a homage to the magazine of the same name founded in the late sixties by Ettore Sottsass, Fernanda Pivano and Allen Ginsberg, with lines borrowed from Ghost of Chance, by William S. Burroughs.

Conero Film + ADV is a festival and a creative retreat born in Italy's Conero Natural Park, out of a community of people, artists and filmmakers from the Conero area and beyond, brought together by the Local Bizzarro. The collective behind it works to make room for thoughtful conversations, hands-on workshops, inspiring talks and a curated film programme.

Dedicated to professionals from the advertising and film industries, CFA welcomes agencies, production companies, brands and directors from all over the world, to help grow a new, fresh audiovisual culture.

  • I attended Conero Film + Adv in 2024 not knowing what to expect. The event really is one of a kind. Three days where the vibrant energy of a magical place meets inspiring encounters with emerging talents. Can't wait to be back this year.
