Le Ombre della Luce (2010)

This is a journey into the world of cinema theaters, a tribute to the film and to the analogue, mechanical projection. Projectionists, cashiers, managers and technicians relate their work experiences. From the time of regularly sold-out shows in the 50s and 60s, to the audience crises in the 80s and in the past decade; from the time of entire lifes spent in projection rooms with carbon arc projectors, to the digital revolution. These stories are set against the backdrop of Turin, one of the first cities in Italy where the Lumiere's Cinématographe was demonstrated to the public in 1896.
