In the years to come, it offered numerous artists their first or renewed chance to present their work to a wider public. The guests included u. a. Benito Jacovitti , Giovanni Guareschi , Dario Fo and Raymond Peynet . With the latter, Perfetto realized the animated film Die Weltreise der Verliebten in 1974 , for which he acted as a director.
