MIFF | 8° Film Festival Internazionale di Milano - La Premiere / Nick Regalbuto, Michael Regalbuto / Henri Lubatti, Matthew Wolf, Ronald Guttman La Premiere Henri Lubatti, Matthew Wolf, Ronald Guttman
The 1800's were a time of invention and exploration. Science, chemistry and ingenuity were rapidly changing the way we lived. Inventors were racing to develop the unimaginable - from the light bulb, to the telephone to the printing press. It was also the beginning of motion pictures. In the early 1890's Thomas Edison had the edge over all inventors with his latest invention: The Kinetoscope; 'a moving picture viewing machine.' The device however could only be viewed by one person at a time. This story focuses on the Lumière Brothers, Auguste & Louis, a pair of young inventors who dream of making images big enough for the whole world to see. Based on a true story, La Première tells the exciting tale of the invention of the cinema as we know it. It’s a story about expanding on what is possible, about acting on the belief that with hard work and vision, you can make the impossible possible.
