    The Venice Film Festival is thought to be the oldest film festival in the world. Every year, people from all over the world go to enjoy the great films and see the film stars.

    The Venice Film Festival first took place in 1932. Since then, it has been held every year. At the first Venice Film Festival, there were no judges or prizes at all, only a list of good films chosen by the public. At the second festival, prizes started to be given. The prize of the festival is the Golden Lion. The lion is the emblem of the ancient republic of Venice.
