The Italian Cinema component tackles the subject from two different perspectives: one historical and the other takes into consideration two of the best-know contemporary Italian directors. Neo-realism and its influence on film-making around the world. The seventies and social commitment. Nanni Moretti and Paolo Sorrentino, two examples appreciated in Italy and the world.

The course looks at the artistic and architectural marvels of the city. Students will learn about these marvels in class and via guided walks around the city.

The course analyses the artistic and architectural testimonies of the city, which, more than any other in the world, is a veritable open-air museum: Rome.

From 753 A.D. up until today: via walks and colour slides, students learn about “visible” architecture (buildings, churches and park) as well as “invisible” architecture, made up of priceless empty urban places: the most beautiful squares in the world. You will trace the lives and works of the most important architects of the past and present who have left indelible marks on the lives of Roman people: you will talk about ancient history, medieval history, the Renaissance, the Baroque period and the contemporary period. The various architectural styles will be compared and each student, using the tools they prefer, will choose a monument, an area, a church, or a building to produce a little photographic and theoretical research about it.

Classes are held twice a week, mornings, afternoons or evenings. Each course lasts 8 weeks. These courses are run all year except in July, August and September. Minimum attendance is 8 weeks.
