In 1955, Raffaele Marani films Castel dell’Alpi, in the municipality of San Benedetto Val di Sambro (Bologna), a few years after the 1951 landslide that blocked the Savena stream and created the present-day lake. The camera captures signs from the State Forestry Corps and the Ministry of Public Works indicating hydraulic and forestry maintenance work. The footage alternates between details of the steep, rocky hillside and panoramic views of the lake, showing the rebuilt village along the shores and an arched bridge.
