To celebrate Bernardo’s 80th birthday, La nave di Teseo has published Il mistero del cinema, the lectio magistralis given by Bernardo at the Teatro Regio di Parma, in 2014, on the occasion of his laurea honoris causa awarded by the University of Parma.

Here is a visual preview of the volume which contains two short films screened during the lectio. Special thanks to the editor Jacopo Quadri, and Lorenzo Castore.
