Exploring the Cultural Heritage of a Territory through the Cinematography Production

The cultural heritage of a place is mainly presented in websites and guides that describe Points of Interest focusing on specific topics or temporal windows. As such, they offer a detailed but fragmented viewpoint of the territory they describe and weakly support the provision of a longitudinal perspective on places and people's lifestyles. In the Revisualizing Italian Silentscapes (RevIS) project, we aim to achieve this perspective by exploiting cinematographic production through the multifaceted exploration of films and their scenes in a movie catalog. Providing advanced search support enhances the preservation and fruition of the cultural heritage related to early and recent movies. However, in this paper, we focus on exploring Points of Interest through the description of landscapes and related places or locations in films, a novel aspect we introduce. Specifically, we present a module of the RevIS app supporting the location-based exploration of movies.
