Made entirely from old family or amateur films shot between 1920 and 1980, the Home Movies – Archivio Nazionale del Film di Famiglia is a large collection saved from dispersion which offers unique insights into the everyday lives of ordinary twentieth century people.
Italian fiction writers encounter the Home Movies archive. Enrico Brizzi, Ermanno Cavazzoni, Emidio Clementi, Ugo Cornia and Wu Ming 2 have produced original texts by finding in the images of the Home Movies Archive the opportunity to experience new narrative techniques. Five episodes with very different approaches lead to surprising results.
Directed by Antonio Bigini, Claudio Giapponesi, Paolo Simoni
