Small Town Big Canvas (Short Film)
Dripped On The Road, a traveling artist residency program paints 14 murals in 2 weeks in Indiana, Pennsylvania during the Covid-19 pandemic. The project transforms the town’s visual landscape while paying homage to its local history and focusing on creative sustainability. The town accepts four artists and three program directors with open, socially-distant arms, creating a heart-warming and quirky story that demonstrates the importance, power and impact of public art and community identity. In a time of crisis, uncertainty and division, the arts are a catalyst for breaking down barriers and uniting people from all walks of life.

Openings: Gazes Beyond the Limit (Feature Film)
Openings explores the world of the architectural elements that embody the concept of threshold, of openness, and of the relationship between inside and outside, through the voices of Italian and international architects, but also by listening to the voices who speak the language of music, sports, art, and the territory. Addressing the theme of the threshold in immaterial, almost “spiritual” terms, the film investigates the close relationship between art and life, between necessity and creative effort, between philosophy and civil thought. Along the Via Emilia, the geographical threshold par excellence, this journey is made of stops, crossings and wanderings.
