Handbook of Movie Theaters' History is a documentary about the history, the development in the present days and the future of movie theaters in the city of Turin, Italy. It mixes the documentary language with comedy and fiction, and is enriched by interviews to some of the most important voices of Turin cinematography. The film follows the evolution of movie theaters by enlightening its main milestones: the pre-cinema experiences in the late 19th Century, the colossals and the movie cathedrals of the silent era, the arthouse theaters, the National Museum of Cinema, the Torino Film Festival, the movie theaters system today and the main hypothesis about its future. The mission of Handbook of Movie Theaters' History is to explore and give back to the audience a deep reflection about the identity and the value of movie theater, in its social and anthropological role and as a mass media, and to analyze the experience of the viewer.

The video clip was created through painstaking hand and rotoscoped one-step animation work under a 3D structure created in computer graphics. The video, which serves as a backdrop to a musical piece by electronic music composer Max Cooper, is conceived through the use of simple structures and shapes in continuous “sound” transformation. Geometric elements, which are the visual equivalent of sounds, evolve into an abstract, undefined dimension, creating a colorful “dance” of signs in space.
