This year, the Venice Film Festival celebrates the tenth edition of its immersive sidebar with a selection of projects involving names such as Margot Robbie, Andy Serkis, Omar Sy, and a project centered on David Bowie. The sidebar, which offers a specialized space for immersive experiences outside the traditional film format, demonstrates that the festival structurally recognizes immersive storytelling as a full-fledged part of the film landscape, with the involvement of prominent names further increasing the visibility of this format.
