Continuing the tradition of promoting Italian culture through cinema, the Italian Film Festival 2024 introduces 6 of the most recent and well-known movies by Italian filmmakers, ranging from drama to comedy. The selected films, which have won many prestigious awards in Europe and around the world, represent the quintessential colors of Italy. Through frames ranging from reality to dreams, from humor to despair, they offer a privileged glimpse into the multifaceted modern Italian society, touching upon pressing political, economic and social topics such as migration and working conditions.
