Il Cinema Ritrovato 2022: History Repeats Itself

ABSTRACT

FQ contributing editor Carla Marcantonio returns to Il Cinema Ritrovato, the festival dedicated to the rediscovery of old films organized every summer by the Cineteca di Bologna. This year's edition marked the first time its audience of international cinephiles reassembled for a wholly in-person experience since the onset of the COVID pandemic. With a total of close to four hundred films and thirty-five to forty screenings a day, the festival offers a unique encounter with film history.
