Seven Weeks of Roman Cinema Magic


Running from May 21st through June 29th, 2025, this carefully curated festival presents a weekly journey through cinema's love affair with Rome. Each Wednesday evening, film enthusiasts gather to experience movies that have captured the essence of the Eternal City, from its ancient grandeur to its modern-day charm.

The season opens with Paolo Sorrentino's Oscar-winning masterpiece "La Grande Bellezza" (The Great Beauty), a film that itself became a love letter to Rome's timeless allure. The programming continues with Woody Allen's "To Rome With Love" on May 28th, followed by the timeless romance "Roman Holiday" featuring Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck in the first week of June.


Contemporary Italian cinema takes center stage on June 11th with Paolo Genovese's "Perfetti Sconosciuti" (Perfect Strangers), while June 18th transports audiences back to ancient Rome with Ridley Scott's epic "Gladiator." The penultimate screening features "Come un gatto in tangenziale," starring beloved Italian actors Paola Cortellesi and Antonio Albanese. The festival reaches its crescendo on Saturday, June 29th, with Alberto Sordi's classic "Il Marchese del Grillo," a fitting tribute to Roman cinema heritage.


Culinary Cinema: A Feast for All Senses

Under the guidance of Executive Chef Simone Frezzotti, each screening becomes a multisensory experience. The exclusive Aperitivo Modius features carefully selected finger foods and signature cocktails designed specifically for the festival. This gastronomic accompaniment transforms a simple movie night into an elegant evening of Roman sophistication, where the flavors complement the visual feast unfolding both on screen and across the cityscape.


An Intimate Escape Above the Urban Bustle

At 35 euros per person, Modius Cinema Paradiso offers an accessible luxury experience that elevates the traditional movie night into something extraordinary. The intimate rooftop setting provides a welcome escape from Rome's bustling streets below, creating a serene atmosphere where the magic of cinema meets the eternal beauty of one of the world's greatest cities.


For those seeking to combine their love of film with an unforgettable Roman experience, this rooftop cinema series represents the perfect marriage of culture, cuisine, and spectacular views. Reservations can be made through Eventbrite, though given the unique venue and limited capacity, early booking is strongly recommended.

As the sun sets over Rome's ancient skyline and the first frames begin to roll, guests at Modius Cinema Paradiso don't just watch movies about Rome—they become part of the city's ongoing cinematic story, one starlit evening at a time.
