Our relationship with the Studios is one of mutual exchange and collaboration. We have helped designing the permanent displays of their Museum and collaborated in various exhibitions and events such as: "Why Cinecittà, Shooting in Cinecittà and Backstage”. After the City of Rome has been nominated by UNESCO as the "City of Creativity and Film Industry,” our Association was invited to work with the Istituto Luce Cinecittà on the project of creating the International Museum of Film and Audiovisual Industry.
