The Festival, at its first edition, supported by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, intends to promote the value of the Italian language and culture abroad through the presentation of works by Italian authors (including those living abroad) and foreign authors who communicate their perception of Italy as a physical place, together with its historical, natural, landscape, environmental, artistic and cultural heritage, and as a place of emotions, reflected and embodied in the different characters of its people.

​​
