The 12th edition of Monaco Charity Film Festival just wrapped up, this year in the benefit of the Virlanie Foundation. 

The festival, which this year marks its 12th edition helps the filmmakers to distribute their films and find financing. But more importantly, every year it gathers celebrities from the show business, political and financing world and royalty – to show the care and benefit the poor children around the world.
