A new documentary will tell the story of over 180 years of Riva history. Riva Per Sempre: A History of Achievements and Innovation is written and directed by Francesca Molteni and Antonio Vettese and produced by Yacht Design, Boat Show Television and Muse Factory of Projects.
The documentary, which premiered in Milan, aired in prime time on Sky Art in mid-July and is now being streamed on the Now platform.
Riva Per Sempre looks back over the highlights in Riva’s history. The boatyard, founded in 1842 on Lake Iseo by shipwright Pietro Riva, has become a leading player in the industry, known for its innovative, elegant designs.
The documentary explores Riva’s evolution, from the first fishing boats to the racing powerboats of the 1920s and ‘30s and from the age of Italy’s la dolce vita to the industrial development promoted by Carlo Riva.
