FREE MOVIES
A singular and interesting phenomenon, like the one that interests free music, is that relating to film productions of free distribution.
There are two broad categories of these films: those that have lost copyright due to time limits (and they are all dated but very interesting films) and films whose authors have renounced commercial rights by their own choice.
The greatest production ever is made by countless groups of fans of particular sagas or simple unique films. The fans of Star Wars and Star Trek are very productive, but many other films have their extremely productive and creative followers.
Another very prolific group are the enthusiastic experimenters and users of graphics programs, very often open source, such as the Blender group. The films are often artisanal and in some cases naive, but very interesting and often very funny.
All these productions are of free distribution and totally free and free by decision of the authors themselves.
I propose a small selection of links to sites specializing in the distribution of films without copyright:
| http://www.fanfilms.net/ | Reference site that collects a huge amount of fan film sites, divided by topic or THEME, also giving an indication of the number of films present for each group. To be considered as a reference point for the topic. |

| http://darkresurrection.com/ | Very interesting project in an advanced state of development, Totally Italian that offers one of the many mini-stories parallel to The Star Wars saga, but at the highest level of plot, acting, photography and tricks, in short, a small masterpiece all Italian. Many more or less famous actors are participating in the project, but all with remarkable character and skill. Interesting photography. |
