This year, even more so than in previous editions, we received hundreds of proposals for new and fascinating restorations. At the end of a lengthy selection process, we drew up a festival programme in which each and every spectator will be able to attain a state of cinematic bliss.

Wim Wenders, revolutionary director of New German Cinema, maker of atypical documentaries and great cinephile, will be a guest and a protagonist at this year’s festival Il Cinema Ritrovato for what are sure to be four captivating events.
