The Musée des Merveilles goes back in time! On the program: the Lumière brothers' very first film screening and 2 amateur nuggets from the 50s about the Roya valley.
The Musée Départemental des Merveilles is celebrating 130 years of cinema by screening the first public showing of the Lumière brothers' cinematograph (1895), and also honoring Roya Valley amateur cinema with La Vallée des Merveilles (1953) and De la Mer aux Merveilles (1955), the first amateur film in cinemascope. These two films, with commentary in the voices of José Sacré, Guy Desmet and Gilbert Bianchi, will be presented by Jean-Michel Bianchi, heir to this exceptional cinematographic work, which, in the 1950s, provided a first glimpse of the valley's past.
