Critical Passion studies the relationship between critics and authors in the history of Italian cinema in relation to the history of the National Union of Italian Film Critics (SNCCI), since its founding act in 1971. It is a non-secondary path in Italian cultural history, traced thanks to the interventions of prestigious witnesses and the editing of archive material, from the 1960s to the advent of the web and social networks and the current explosion of the audiovisual sector, which questions the very definition and boundaries of cinema.
