ITALY THROUGH THE EYES OF ITS FILMMAKERS
This Week Let’s Travel! takes listeners to Italy as reflected through the eyes of its filmmakers. At the Open Roads Festival in New York City, we hear about the grand tradition of Italian cinema, as well as a look into the future of Italian film-making, from Richard Pena, program director, Lincoln Center Film Society and Irene Bignardi, president, Filmitalia. And two Italian directors, Davide Marengo and Andrea Molaioli discuss the films they presented this year. Plus we get tips on “hidden gems” in Rome from Ms. Bignardi.
