About 29th Locarno Film Festival
The 29th Locarno Film Festival was held from 5 to 15 August 1976 in Locarno, Switzerland. The Locarno open-air screenings were moved inside for five nights due to rain, at the cost of $2,000 each night in lost revenue for the festival. The festival attracted controversial by screening the erotic film In the Realm of the Senses and the then recently deceased Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom.
