The tribute to French noir continues with a four-way conversation between the director of the Polars du Sud Festival in Toulouse, Jean-Paul Vormus, and the authors Hervé Le Corre, Jérôme Loubry, and Franck Thilliez. Noir’s international film competition wraps up with Drunken Birds. The Conversations series hosts authors Loriano Macchiavelli and Mariolina Venezia.
Interviewed by John Vignola, Lisa Jewell presented her novel The Family Upstairs to Italian audiences.
The program on Monday gets underway in the spirit of Noir’s poster this year: with an event built around the deep web. It continues with a masterclass on Graham Greene and John le Carré, while authors Alex Michaelides and Maurizio de Giovanni take the stage for our Conversation series. On the big screen, Monday’s two premieres are Golden Leopard winner Vengeance is Mine, All Others Pay Cash, and the French-made, Korean-set Vanishing.

The entire program for Sunday has that distinct Gallic touch, from the conversation with authors Hervé Le Corre and Jérôme Loubry to the eagerly awaited new film by Fabrice Du Welz, Inexorable.
Laura Lippman had much to say about her book Lady in the Lake, newly published in Italian, and above all, the two main characters: Maddie Schwarz and Cleo Sherwood.
Antonio Capuano and Dario Argento take center-stage on day two of Noir in Festival. Two films by Caligari Prize contenders premiere on Saturday: A Classic Horror Story and Calibro 9. Diario di spezie bows in the International Competition. Simona Vinci and Stefano Vicario present their new novels.
First up in the spotlight, Italy’s heavyweights in the fields of literature and film, and that means the five finalists for the Giorgio Scerbanenco Award, which singles out, every year, the best Italian novel in genre fiction, and the six finalists for the Claudio Caligari Prize, an accolade bestowed jointly with IULM University, to honor the best Italian genre film.
