For the ROARING YEARS. Italy, the boom, cinema showcase, film screening of Signore e Signori by Pietro Germi.

Library/Mediatheque – 29 February 2016, 3.30 p.m. – Events Room

A new rendez-vous for the ROARING YEARS. Italy, the Boom, Cinema showcase, with the film screening of Signore e Signori (The birds, the bees and the Italians) by Pietro Germi.

 

This retrospective - selected from a broad filmography referring to films that dealt more or less directly with different perspectives of Italian society at the time of the boom - offers a critical itinerary, reflecting on a historical period full of dreams and expectations, which soon morphed into frivolous, farcical aspects.
