Perspective

As a film critic he works regularly for the magazines Filmcritica, Duellanti, Cineforum and is director of Panoramiques.[1]

As a programmer and curator Chatrian worked with various festivals and film institutions:[2]

On September 4, 2012, Chatrian was nominated artistic director at the Festival del film Locarno.[6]

In June 2018, Chatrian was named as the new artistic director of the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), to assume this position in 2020 in collaboration with Mariette Rissenbeek as executive director.[7] In September 2023, he announced that he would step down from his role at the Berlinale after the 2024 edition. Chatrian motivated his decision saying that the new management structure of the festival, pushed for by the German Federal Culture Ministry, would not grant him sufficient freedom to shape the program.[8]

On September 18, 2024, Chatrian was appointed as the new director of the National Cinema Museum in Turin, for a five-year mandate.[9][10]
