- Summary:
- The Colosseum team faces the biggest challenge of their career: a race against time to prepare for reopening after being in lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In fifty minutes with your eyes glued to the big screen, you will be enamored by the breathtaking images of one of the most visited monuments in the world. Throughout this film, you will come across archaeologists, restorers, workers, custodians, and support staff, all of whom never abandoned the Colosseum even in the most difficult and trying moment of its two-millennium history. Where one used to see thousands of visitors daily, what remained was a silence unlike anything this environment had seen before. In advance of the site's re-opening, this family of colleagues must build a new way to visit one of the most famous monuments in the world.
