Film walks: Nora Gregor: Diva of Multicultural Gorizia

On February 3, we launched the cycle of film walks within Kinoatelje’s project Nostro cine quotidiano – Our Everyday Cinema with a cake and a lecture. The series includes five walks dedicated to the stories, figures, places, and films that have shaped the history of film culture in Gorizia and Nova Gorica.

The first set of walks is dedicated to Nora Gregor, a film and theater actress born on 3 February 1901 in Gorizia, who became one of the most significant actresses of her time, working both in Europe and Hollywood. Her career includes notable roles, such as the one in Michael (1924) by Carl Theodor Dreyer and Jean Renoir’s classic The Rules of the Game (1939). Her life story reflects the multicultural and multilingual Gorizia, where various influences intertwined until the turmoil of war changed the destiny of the city and its inhabitants.

Important Information:

• The walks are free of charge and available in Italian, Slovenian, and English language.
• Registration via the online form is mandatory.
