AN EARLY 20TH-CENTURY TRAVELOGUE OF THE LIGURIAN COAST, RIVIERA DI LEVANTE OFFERS A SURVEY OF SANTA MARGHERITA, RAPALLO, AND PORTOFINO, CAPTURING EVERYDAY LIFE, ARCHITECTURE, AND ARTISANAL TRADITIONS.
A silent 35mm film produced by Ambrosio. It opens with a sweeping view of the Gulf of Santa Margherita, then tours towns in the Tigullio area: Santa Margherita with its hotels and villas, Rapallo and its castle, San Michele di Pagana, and Portofino, still a working-class village with laundry on façades. Scenes include locals, passers-by, children, fishermen, horse-drawn carriages, and notably, women making bobbin lace in Portofino.
