Time Capsule Cinema was founded with one mission: to preserve legacies and ensure the stories that shape us are never forgotten. For founder Marco Prisco, this journey began in 2023 after the passing of his beloved Nonno. To honor his grandfather's remarkable life, Marco created a deeply personal documentary using lost footage and heartfelt interviews. This labor of love became a treasured gift for his Nonna, their four children, and thirteen grandchildren, ensuring his legacy lives on for generations to come.

The experience of preserving his Nonno’s story was transformative. It taught Marco the power of storytelling in keeping a family’s history alive. Inspired by this, he founded Time Capsule Cinema to help other families capture their unique stories—stories of love, sacrifice, and triumph—so that their legacies can be shared with future generations. At its core, Time Capsule Cinema is about honoring the past while connecting with the future.

Recently, Marco joined forces with Growing Up Italian, a thriving platform that celebrates Italian heritage and the importance of family. Founded by cousins Michela, Sabino, and Rocco, Growing Up Italian started as an Instagram page and has grown into a vibrant community that unites Italians worldwide. Their mission is to embrace and promote Italian culture while sharing stories that resonate with Italians everywhere.

As a proud member of a large Italian family himself, Marco found a natural partnership with Growing Up Italian. Together, they are working to highlight the importance of legacy, family, and culture—both through community storytelling and Time Capsule Cinema’s documentary services. Whether it’s honoring a loved one, capturing a family’s rich history, or celebrating cultural heritage, Time Capsule Cinema ensures that the legacies we cherish today will last forever.
