Relazione annuale sulla cultura: crescita diffusa, ad eccezione del cinema - Intervista a Luca Dal Pozzolo

·11 min·1 clip
Multi-screen cinemas decline as streaming and Covid transform movie-going into a selective, immersive experience.
The episode features an interview with Luca Dal Pozzolo, who comments on the annual cultural report presented at the Regional Museum of Natural Sciences in Turin. He notes a general recovery in Piedmont's cultural sectors compared to pre-Covid levels, but points out underlying transformations in user behavior. A key contradiction is that family spending on culture has contracted despite increased participation in some areas. In the live show sector, public attendance has surged since 2021, yet occupational data shows reductions in jobs and performance days. Cinema is identified as a suffering sector, with large multi-screen venues declining more than smaller ones. Dal Pozzolo attributes this to a shift in cultural habits, where streaming and home viewing have reduced mass cinema-going. He explains that cinemas thriving today often offer additional activities like debates and community events, making them local cultural hubs. The discussion then turns to marginal areas, such as mountains, where only 74 out of 131 municipalities have proper cultural places like museums and libraries. Dal Pozzolo observes a trend of repopulation in these areas, driven by cultural resources like libraries and cinemas. He emphasizes that cultural institutions now play a role in revitalizing decentralized regions, suggesting new forms of infrastructure distribution. The interview concludes with a look ahead to future reports to track these dynamics.
