We are talking about glass, one of the most useful materials
used by man. The history of humanity is linked to this material,
starting with obsidian up to get to the most elaborate contemporary objects; in the middle
there is everything.
This documentary offers a total immersion in Italian history of glass,
using Venice (specifically Murano), as an ideal sample that contains
the total completeness of the pieces that made this art,
an Italian excellence in the eyes of the world. This documentary will be a real one
journey through the history of glass in all its forms, from the most ancient objects to
more modern creations resulting from foreign collaborations.
