Project title: CARMELO
Amount Awarded: € 4,995
The first ever full length feature film in the innovative FILM Malti project. While arguments continue in Malta over whether or not he was a traitor of his country in Italy, the name of Carmelo is a legend. Benito Mussolini called him a Maltese Martyr and in 1943 created in Liguria the Battaglione Borg Pisani, in his honour. He was posthumously awarded the Gold Medal of Military Valour, the highest Italian military award, by King Vittorio Emmanuele III. Requests have regularly been made by his family and the Italian Government to exhume his body, and give it an honourable burial, which request has never been acceded to. Given that the film is in Maltese, the aim of bringing it to the attention of overseas audiences can only be achieved with the addition of subtitles particularly Italian. Subtitles in English and Spanish will also be added.

Project title: The Local Traveller
Amount Awarded: € 5,000
A TV and online programme whose episodes are a direct promotion of our islands. Through its episodes, it will bring to the screen an out and about experience that foreigners as well as locals can experience in Malta. The idea is to give exposure to our islands and the diverse and unique experiences that Malta has to offer thanks to its authenticity. The programme content will be timeless and can be referred to over time through a You Tube channel. Without the English subtitles, all this cannot possibly be accessible to the foreigners whom we are trying to attract to Malta.
