The Venice Film Festival’s parallel Venice Days section unveiled its lineup with 12 films in official selection, Deadline said.

All feature debuts in the sidebar are eligible for the festival’s Lion of the Future prize while all the European films will compete for the Europa Cinemas Label.

The Venice Days Association organizes the event with support from the Culture Ministry in collaboration with the Venice Biennale.

Venice Days is collaborating for the first time this year with the Tribeca Film Festival to bring an American film, in this case Lennie Cooke, to the Lido for its international premiere. Conversely, Venice Days will send a film to Tribeca next year.

The 12 official competition titles are: Alienation by Milko Lazarov; La Belle Vie by Jean Denizot; Bethlehem by Yuval Adler; Gerontophilia by Bruce LaBruce; Kill Your Darlings by John Krokidas; Nobody’s Home by Deniz Akçay Katıksız; May In The Summer by Cherien Dabis; La Mia Classe by Daniele Gaglianone; La Reconstruccion by Juan Taratugo; Rigor Mortis by Juno Mak; Siddharth by Richie Mehta and Traitors by Sean Gullette.
