Making of the trophy
Every award is built around one essential question about the future.
“Will this vision become reality?”
“What still makes us human?”
“Is this technology plausible?”
“How will our spaces change?”
“Which social change does it anticipate?”
“Which idea deserves the conversation?”
“A student's perspective on the future.”
Once the jury completes its selection, the finalist and award-winning films of this first edition will be featured here.

Aspirational Film Festival is organized by ASP Alumni, the association connecting former students of Alta Scuola Politecnica — the joint honors program of Politecnico di Milano and Politecnico di Torino, uniting engineering, architecture and design in one multidisciplinary class. Since 2004, ASP has trained generations of cross-disciplinary talents; ASP Alumni keeps that community connected and active — and now, imagining the future together on screen.
