We’re proud to announce “Hell’s Knock” as the Booster Winner of Q1 2026. . It starts with something simple. A knock at the door. A young woman looks through the peephole and sees someone pleading for help. A moment of hesitation. A choice. And then everything shifts. It seems ... some doors should never be opened… 🚪 . Sharp, gripping, and hauntingly executed, Hell’s Knock stands out through its precise control of tension. A powerful concept, delivered with confidence, that lingers long after the final frame. . Big congratulations to the team behind Hell’s Knock. 🔥 More about the film and its amazing crew here: /6A7bn56PT6 . - Write & Direct by: Alessandro Di Cristanziano in art “Stelmasiov” - @ale_headshot - Executive Producer: Alessandro DI Renzo - Fadeout Film - @fadeoutfilmprod - DOP: Leonardo Cestari - @leocestari Tommaso Cassinis - @tommaso_cassinis - Assistant director: Gabriele Alboretti - @gabriele_alboretti - Spark: Jacopo Cipriani - @jacopocipriani__ - Focus Puller: Gioele Rigamonti - @_lele.riga_ Cristian D’alessio - @cristian.glare - Boom Operator - Sound Design & Soundtrack: Gabriele Duregon - @g_soundguy - Styling: Angela Rago - @angela__rago - Make-up: Sara Campili - @saracampili_makeupartist - SFX: Gisella Pallotta - BST: Lorenzo Vanzan - @lorenzovanzan - Stunt Double: Lavinia Bonanni - @_laviniabonanni_ - Production assistants: Giulia Minella - @giuliaminella Gianmarco Gabriele - @gianmarco.gabriele

🔥🚀 We’re excited to announce C66 @c66_films as the Winner of Pazz Creativity League April. Born in Sardinia in 2025, this independent cinema collective came together through a shared passion for film (and a clear love for David Lynch energy). Their journey started with “Fuendi” (2nd place in Cagliari 🏆🌟), and it’s clear they’re only getting started. Since then, they’ve been steadily building a voice that’s both experimental and deeply human. . Over the past 3 months in the league, C66 brought an impressive range of storytelling: —from a minimalist, expression-driven short that held attention without a single word, —to a raw take on the emotional impact of online bullying, —to a perfectly timed, hilarious moment set in something as ordinary as a doctor’s waiting room. What stood out was how confidently they executed each piece, with strong visual language and performances that moved seamlessly between subtle, dramatic, and comedic. C66 didn’t just participate in the Creativity League, they explored it. 🎬 @c66_films @f__biggio @valentinasulas @instalegallo @giuditta_cabua @origaantonello . C66, it’s been a pleasure watching you create, experiment, and push boundaries on Pazz Network. We can’t wait to see what you do next. 🚀 .
