In Villa Borghese, the Casa del Cinema comprises three projection halls, an exhibition space, and a 200-seat outdoor theatre. It screens everything from documentaries to shorts, indie flicks and art-house classics (sometimes in their original language), and hosts a regular program of retrospectives and film-related events.
