Marco Polo VR Experience

To translate a medieval literary account and the history of exploration into a three-dimensional visual experience, going beyond the limits of traditional non-fiction. The project aims to bring to life the fascination of trade routes and distant civilisations, ensuring deep documentary rigour in the philological reconstruction of period settings.

A multimedia experience in Location-Based Experience (LBE) format, lasting 18:45 minutes in Virtual Reality. The use of immersive technology turns the historical account into a dynamic educational tool, placing audiences at the centre of historical settings and Asian marketplaces reconstructed to a high visual standard.

Authority and philological rigour: An outstanding cultural model developed in collaboration with the Istituto della Enciclopedia Italiana Treccani and institutional partners, certifying the scientific accuracy of the story.
International reach and projection: availability in five languages and distribution in prestigious global museums and film festivals turns the project into a transnational cultural bridge.
Cross-generational outreach: the combination of authored storytelling and digital engagement gives schools, tourists and enthusiasts the ideal tools to understand the complexity of the first great exchanges between East and West.
