- Gregorian Chant: Back to Your Actual House is a documentary/performance film which interweaves a visual reflection on the text of Genesis with chants performed by the Schola Cantorum of the Benedictine monks of that convent and interviews with the monks themselves on the reasons and the beauty of their lifestyle choice. One of the monks expressly says that Gregorian chant represents for them a sort of moment of return to their true home, to the somewhat spiritual home to which we all belong, and inspired the film's title. The parallel juxtaposition of the chants and the words of the monks to Genesis, a text which more than any other speaks of our earthly home and its beauty, acts as a contrast on the one hand and on the other it supports the spirituality and happiness of these monks. Photographed in the convent of Heiligenkreuz, writer/director Roberto Quagliano (Pericles by Shakespeare on the Road) also interviews historians and experts on Gregorian chant to reconstruct how these chants were born and how they developed historically starting from the seventh century.
- As part of the TV series "Musei d'Europa" ("Museums of Europe") this documentary portrays the Bavarian National Museum in Munich. Only a few steps off the English Garden, situated on the boulevard of the Prinzregentenstraße in the heart of the city, this jewel is not yet touched by the waves of mass tourism which inundate the city's three famous pinacothecas. The Bavarian National Museum is not only a pure treasure of precious objects from past centuries, but also a surprisingly fascinating place full of life thanks to the main characters of this documentary: the people who in their daily work, merging their ideas and creativity, ensure that the thousands of works stored in this building are presented in the best way possible. The documentary not only focuses on the major works in the exhibition, but also shows the difficulties and challenges connected to maintaining such an institution, organising exhibitions, restoring and "bringing back to life" objects that have been stored for a long time, planning and realising events. At intervals, the director of the Museum, the conservators, the press spokeswoman or the security guards will tell the audience about their work in the Bavarian National Museum from the moment it opens its doors until the last lights are switched off at night. This documentary was produced by Pupi Avati for TV2000, written and directed by Alessandro Melazzini who also acted as executive producer. Alpenway Media Production GmbH contributed on spot as Production Service Company.

- As part of the TV series I Grandi Santuari d'Europa (The Great Sanctuaries in Europe) this documentary tells the story and the extraordinary devotional experience of the Marianic Sanctuary Altötting in Bavaria. This place is the most important shrine in the German speaking countries and Pope Benedict XVI., who originates from the nearby village of Marktl am Inn, describes it as: «the heart of Bavaria and one of the hearts of Europe». Among the interview partners rank the Bishop, the principal and the two Friars Guardian, as well as pilgrims, sacristans, musicians, administrative officers and peasants, all united by a simple and firm devotion to the Black Virgin of Altötting, whose wooden statue is to be found in the medieval octagonal building of the minute Chapel of Grace and is visited each year by thousands of devotees from all over the world. The documentary is split in two parts of an hour's length each.
