Images of Italy captured by tourists and travellers in the twentieth century: a preview of a new project for the production of a major exhibit on the theme of tourism, history and national identity. People choose to travel for different reasons and every one of these reasons confers a different vision and perspective to the films documenting their journeys. Today's viewers will be guided by the perspective of tourists and travellers of the past.
In collaboration with Home Movies as part of the 'I Reggiani, per esempio' (The citizens of Reggio Emilia, as an example) initiative.
