Milo and Bruno open another box
A photograph captures a moment. In these videos, voices, gestures and places come alive again: playlists from the Teatri Riflessi YouTube channel, from the earliest footage in 2009 to the stories of 2026.
Bruno
Is there a whole festival in every one of these? I want the trailers, the films made afterwards, and all the best moments!
Milo
Let’s begin with the playlists and pick out a few special films. Each playlist will grow as the team adds footage; we are still gathering the traces of the earlier editions.

Milo e Bruno raccontano IterCulture
Bruno is a large plush bear who joined the family with plenty of questions. Milo is a digital archivist who searches for answers among photographs, documents and memories. Together, they piece together the history of IterCulture and Teatri Riflessi since 2008, while keeping up with what is happening today. With the occasional interruption from Bruno, naturally.
