narrated by Milena Vukotic, Sguardi in Camera is a documentary series that tells the story of Italy through images and emotions, offering intimate fragments of great cinematic histories in a condensed format. It is a story of hopes and disappointments, of utopias and disillusionments, filmed by unexpected narrators: Italians behind the camera, often unaware protagonists and witnesses of their own time. This collection of stories stems from a collective and choral experience, that of those who observed reality through the lenses of amateur film cameras: gazes in which we can rediscover, in the foreground or the background, crucial moments and defining aspects of our country’s history.
