Cinemateca Festival

An archive film festival held at the Villa del Grumello on Lake Como, run with the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia to keep Italian cinema history in view. An intimate festival — archive cinema, long conversations, a historic lakeside villa as the venue. Lorenzo and I have worked together for nearly fifteen years, mostly in the cultural sector, and that ease showed: the main challenge here wasn't the aesthetic, it was untangling a programme that mixed lectures, projections and talks in a way that actually made sense to navigate.
