Italian Movie series at AUC

ITACA presents the movie LAMERICA (1994) by Gianni Amelio, tomorrow Tuesday March 23, 2010 in Room 209, Falaki Building, AUC Tahrir Campus, 7 PM.
The movie will be presented in Italian with English Subtitles and will be introduced by Vincenzo Mattei.

Lamerica is a crude film on migration that questions, through the "return home" of a young and an old Italian, the very notion of national identity. Shot in Albania after the collapse of the communist regime, the movie describes the two main characters' generational differences.
Their long journey home, and particularly the elder's delusion in expecting to find in the nineties the Italy of his youth, enacts a superb drama, and parody, of two Italian emigrants returning as foreigners to their own country.


Free entry but bring an ID card for the gate.
