Lyda Borelli, leading lady of the 1900s

L'Aquila



  • Le Donne del Cinema Italiano. Lyda Borelli , 20 March 2025
  • On Thursday 20 March 2025, the Istituto Cinematografico dell’Aquila “La Lanterna Magica” ETS offers a cinematic in-depth look at Lyda Borelli, diva and style icon who lived and trod the boards of the theatre and starred on screen in the early twentieth century.

    The event is part of the series Le Donne del Cinema Italiano, which the Institute launched on 20 January, on World Italian Cinema Day: each month brings a focus on a woman who left her mark on the history of Italian cinema, from the dawn of the silent era to cinema today.

    Thanks to material held in the Centro Archivio Cinematografico, it is possible to piece together the history, the images and the emotions that only the seventh art can offer.
