**The Lessons of History: Luciano Canfora and Laterza from Bari Onwards by Massimo Ruggiero (Documentary)**
School and the impossible neutrality of the teacher, democracy as an ideological construct, and politics as a relationship with others. Luciano Canfora addresses some essential themes of his intellectual journey, inspiring and creating new awareness.

From June 19, 2025, ARMATA BRANCALEONE awaits you at the ExpostModerno arena for the 2025 CINEMA IN FREEDOM FESTIVAL. During the festival, feature films and short films for young people and adults will be presented, and numerous meetings between authors and the public will be organized. All of this will be structured as a series of weekly events that will accompany you throughout the summer, until about mid-September.
This is an experiment in participatory exhibition where associative realities and beyond come together to create a series of screenings for everyone, absolutely everyone — including your pets. The arena is Pet Friendly.
We, the volunteers, will be in the arena to welcome you in the company of the many organizations that have chosen to collaborate with us:
