- In the 1700's, while the glory of Venice was to the apex of its splendor but to the beginning of its express decline, Carlo Goldoni anticipated the French revolution renewing the European theatre: it removed to the actors the mask of the comedies of the art in order to show the true face and the emotions of the bourgeois of the age of the illuminism.

- The photographic art of Carlo Naya, as preserved in surprisingly beautiful glass negatives, sets the scene for Richard Wagner's Venice. In a recording studio, an actor supplies the voice for Wagner's own narrative of the rediscovered first symphony. In the account written a few weeks before his death in the city on 13 February 1883, the composer describes a performance of the symphony by an orchestra made up of the teachers and students of the Venice Conservatory (the Liceo Musicale Benedetto Marcello). The black shape of a piano glides up the Grand Canal and is disembarked at the Palazzo Malipiero, a palace Wagner frequented. As notes float through the rooms, an actress's voice reading the pages of Cosima Wagner's diary interweaves with the memoirs of Giuseppe Norlenghi, who gathered the impressions of the leading players at the historic concert. A pianist introduces and performs some excerpts from the Beethoven-like symphony, revealing how this youthful work is the foundation stone for an architecture that eventually towered up into Tristan, Götterdämmerung and Parsifal.
- The Redentore day is the most involving and spectacular venetian festivity recurring for ages, every year during the 3rd Sunday in July. This documentary-movie shows both the steps of the event's setting and the joy with which the population celebrates the recurrence mixing up sacred and profane spirit. We can follow the building of the Votive Bridge in the Canale of Giudecca, the stunning midnight pyrotechnical show called "foghi", the swarm of boats decorated with fronds and light balloons filling up the lagoon in front of San Marco's square. The Palladian Redentore Temple was erected by citizens in 1575 in order to celebrate the end of a terrible plague with the dissolution of the processional vote renewing every year since then.
