Editorial board

Luci&Ombre's editorial board is a wide-ranging and multidisciplinary agglomeration, and this highlights the magazine's open-minded intent and readiness for critical dialogue. Luci&Ombre is a wide-ranging project and is more than just an online magazine on Italian cinema; it is an ambitious project that seeks to redefine and deepen understanding of film culture through a diverse and innovative approach.

The committee is committed to keeping the dialogue always open and inclusive, and aims to address a wide range of topics related to Italian cinema, past and present. These include film studies, teaching, curiosities, outreach and passion for Italian film culture.
