Roma Caput Disco

Directed by Corrado Rizza

This documentary takes an in-depth look into the beginnings of clubbing in Rome and the evolution of the role of disc jockey as a profession. Currently, in present day DJs have stepped out of the shadows and have reached maximum media visibility, catapulting some to the level of actual pop stars. From the end of the 60's, after the opening of the mythical Piper Club, to the beginning of the 90's, the city of Rome became the capital of amusement. In the 70's legendary discos opened such as Much More and the infamous gay club, Easy Going. The 80's were also the years of Roman favorites Histeria and Gilda, as well as many other amazing clubs.
