    La culpa
  • Genre: Feature film
  • Year: 1918
  • Runtime: 00:02:27
  • Description: The film is a 35 meters long fragment, the remainder of a strongly decayed print, enough though to let us recognize the diva Pina Menichelli, here happy bride first and then melancholy loner. A sign on the print has allowed to identify it as the film “Gemma di Sant’Eremo”, a title that according to Vittorio Martinelli, reveals the reshaped version of “La colpa”, played two years before by the Italian diva and never distributed for censorship reasons. The video is a copy from the film print preserved by the Museo Nazionale del Cinema: 35mm, polyester, positive, colour (Desmetcolor), 35 m, Italian intertitles, silent. The preservation work was carried out in 2012 by L’Immagine Ritrovata laboratory in Bologna.
