Television fans will be delighted when the Monte-Carlo Television Festival returns to the Grimaldi Forum from 16 to 20 June for a very artistic 2023 edition. The tone is set by the official poster produced by Tatiana Djordjevic and Pedro Alonso, best known for playing Berlin in Money Heist (La Casa de Papel). Most people may not know that these real-life partners have been co-creating original works of art for several years under the name Magü, which means 'magic' in Persian. For the Monaco event, they have reinterpreted the famous nymph, which is depicted in the centre of a starry setting. "We hope everyone will enjoy our interpretation of the Nymph and Monte Carlo," says Alonso.
Providing entertainment and promoting television
Although the festival is a hit with fans of the small screen, it should not be forgotten that it is a competition. Actors and producers hope to leave with a trophy in their hands. This year, six Golden Nymphs will be awarded in the fiction category: Best Film, Best Series, Best Creation, Best Actress, Best Actor and Special Jury Prize. Each of the programmes officially selected for the fiction category and the Prince Rainier III Special Prize will be presented in public screenings. "Our goal is to recognise the best content that entertains and educates consumers, and raises awareness of a variety of issues related to our planet," explains Laurent Puons, Deputy Vice President of the Monte-Carlo Television Festival.
