Rome: Secrets From Above on SBS and SBS on Demand S1E1 and S1E2 – Rome: Secrets From Above explores the incredible sights, history and secret engineering of Rome from an entirely new perspective – from the air.
Season One, Episode One:
Sweeping drone footage follows skilled engineers as they preserve the city’s treasures, from the Trevi Fountain, where nearly a million euros in coins are removed each year, to a remarkable excavation project at the newly discovered Roman city of Aquinum. The aerial journey captures a tour of the city in an icon of Italian design, the Fiat 500 and ventures beyond the ancient walls to a spectacular cliff-top settlement teetering on the brink of collapse.
Season One, Episode Two:
An aerial journey captures the thunderous midday gun tradition, echoing across the city for over 170 years, and ventures beyond the ancient walls to a remarkable historic quarry that’s still in use today. From above, the city’s transformation from Roman ruin to Renaissance masterpiece is revealed, including the restoration of a remarkable fountain staircase hidden in Rome’s famous botanical gardens.
