Tiziana Rocca and the Festival direction. Tiziana Rocca is one of the rare female film festival directors in the world. She founded Filming Italy Los Angeles, Filming Italy Sardegna, and Filming Italy Special Venice. \"Certainly, the road is uphill, because even though I\'ve been doing it for many years, for more than 10 years in Italy - for 6 years the Taormina Film Festival, for 7 years Filming Italy Sardegna, reaching ten years of Filming Italy Los Angeles - within my festivals I have always tried to support innovations in the audiovisual field.\" For Rocca, there is \"a need for many more female directors who tell beautiful and interesting stories and who highlight the figure of women. I believe the path is now underway, so we hope that many women will choose other women.\" Filming Italy Los Angeles has achieved exceptional results in these ten years, \"with two Walk of Fame stars for Giancarlo Giannini and Gina Lollobrigida. We have worked on promoting Italian cinema, the territory, and we have made the peculiarities of our art and culture known here in Los Angeles. An now indispensable partnership has been created, also evidenced by the large presence of artists during the Festival. Moreover, the Festival has allowed authors and directors to help them find international distribution and to enhance them in the best way.\"
