Saturday, June 13 was a day of celebration open to all citizens, culminating in a special screening on the rooftop of the Renato Zangheri Archive, featuring a gem by Agnès Varda from 1991: Garage Demy.

A new centre of major European and international significance, the Archive was created through the redevelopment of the former Giuriolo Parking Facility. It will house the vast film and photographic heritage of the Cineteca, together with collections entrusted by numerous depositors, as well as the L’Immagine Ritrovata restoration laboratory. These two entities, which engage in a constant daily dialogue—preservation and restoration being the two pillars of our work—are now brought together under one roof in a state-of-the-art facility.

For ten days, leading up to Il Cinema Ritrovato festival, the Renato Zangheri Archive will remain open to the public, offering guided tours of its film and photographic archives led by Cineteca archivists.

Guided Tour Schedule
June 15–24, daily at 11:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
In addition to the guided tours in Italian mentioned above, three new English-language tours have been added, scheduled for Monday 22, Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 June at 9:30 a.m.
