CineGame Jam 2021
We had the opportunity to design and create a new exhibition space dedicated to Cinema and Video Games, accessible both online and on-site. Since 2021, in collaboration with IIDEA (Italian Interactive & Digital Entertainment Association), the Cineteca di Milano MIC has been showcasing Italian productions through this section dedicated to Made in Italy video games.
