From an Idea… Where It All Began
Polyedric Visions began in 2015 as an informal group of young creatives. The project that started it all was the medium-length film La Bella degli Specchi, written and directed by Lavinia Andreini, who had just turned eighteen at the time. Filmed in Lucca and inspired by the legend of the noblewoman Lucida Mansi, the project was created by a team consisting mainly of people under twenty and involved around 80 participants. It was presented at the Lucca Film Festival and at MIFEC in Portugal.
In 2019, the group formally established Polyedric Visions APS.
