Un po’ as it happens at home, maybe in the days of the long quarantine that is about to end, when choosing which movie to watch, or in convivial situations, when you end up making charts of the most popular films or improvising the "tower game" between this or that title.
In this way, the public will be able to choose the titles that have fascinated them most, turn after turn, until the finals, retracing the history of cinema, from its origins to the present day, through a knockout tournament online on the site https://www.ciakmagazine.it/i-film-della-nostra-vita/ and on the social profiles of Ciak commenting, criticizing and supporting their favorite titles.
The intent of the initiative THE FILMS OF OUR LIVES is to offer not only a great game, but above all a journey into the seventh art, which intertwines popular culture and author films, giving new life to a very rich and deeply felt heritage, able to entertain and also represent an unprecedented cross-section of our tastes in cinema.
The initiative THE FILMS OF OUR LIVES, launched by the monthly Ciak, was born on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the opening of the National Cinema Museum at the Mole Antonelliana and the birth of the Turin Piedmont Film Commission and is part of Turin City of Cinema 2020. A year-long film, a project by City of Turin, National Cinema Museum e Film Commission Torino Piemonte, with the support of Ministry of Heritage and Culture, in collaboration with Piemonte region, Turin Culture Foundation (www.torinocittadelcinema.it) and the Media Partnership Rai.
