Lux in Arcana: the Vatican Secret Archives revealed
A historic event calls for a trailer that anticipates its scope, guiding the viewer into the visual world that will be staged for the Lux in Arcana exhibition.
A trailer for a cultural event with cinema's visual language
For the first time, 100 documents (parchments, manuscripts, registers and codices) were brought outside Vatican City. They were selected from the treasures that the Pope's Archives have preserved and protected for centuries. We were therefore asked to give the video, which previews the exhibition at the Capitoline Museums in Rome, a solemn and spectacular tone.
