Archivio Aperto

Archivio Aperto is a Bologna film festival organized by Home Movies – Archivio Nazionale del Film di Famiglia, devoted to rediscovering and reusing small-format film heritage, including private, amateur, experimental, and artist’s cinema.[1][2] It is notable for its focus on archive-based filmmaking, family memories, micro-history, and found footage, and is described by the organizers as one of Italy’s most important events for reflecting on the public use of private memory.[1]
