Films from 2020 edition of the feminist film festival FROM ROSA TO SIMONE tell us about love stories between women, in various countries, epochs and political systems.

Women love Women – friendly, platonically, passionately, with hope, without hope, with joy, with fear, secretly, and loudly. The relationships develop where the surroundings do not acknowledge or do ignore them.

Nevertheless, Women love Women, as it has been since ancient times.

Festival will open with a documentary portrait of Donna Haraway, a remarkable feminist philosopher and primatologist, who once again celebrates the existence of all fantastic creatures and their symbiotic and ever-transforming relationships, and once again reminds us of the magical power and of the importance of Storytelling.
