Micocosmo: A Fungi's World in a Festival
MicoCosmo is Italy’s first festival entirely dedicated to mycology and the world of fungi in all its forms, born from a grassroots effort led by volunteers and spontaneous support from the community. Talks, workshops, forest walks, and convivial moments create organic spaces for shared experiences and exchange of knowledge. Through the voices of mycologists, researchers, organizers and fungi enthusiasts, the film explores the richness of perspectives that animate contemporary mycology. A place for collective dialogue and growth, imagining new approaches and building a community inspired by the world of fungi.
