Divine Providence

This feature-length documentary from filmmaker Salvatore Mancini, Divine Providence: The Rebirth of an American City, follows the infrastructural developments and feats of engineering that shaped Providence as we know it today. The film charts the development of architecture in the city from the 17th century to today, connecting some of the city’s defining projects to the individuals and organizations that made them possible. At its core, the film evokes a Providence that is emerging – a city built upon the bones of its past, where an ongoing Renaissance is directly connected with its industrial history, its natural geography, and its creative heart.
