Now in its sixth year at Museum of Photographic Arts, the San Diego Italian Film Festival has grown into an amazing conduit to enjoy Italian culture. In its entirety, the San Diego Italian Film Festival runs from October 26 through November 11, and features 17 spectacular Italian movies that evoke laughter, tears, and passion.
Tonight, the San Diego Italian Film Festival presents Pane e Tulipani (Bread and Tulips) (2000), an award-winning romance comedy film directed by Italian Director Silvio Soldini, and starring Licia Maglietta and Bruno Ganz. The film was an official selection at numerous film festivals, including the Cannes Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival. The plot follows an Italian housewife, Rosalba Barletta (Maglietta), who finds herself stranded during a family vacation. Instead of waiting for her controlling businessman husband, she hitchhikes her way home, only to impulsively be detoured to Venice. The film depicts the trials and errors of Barletta as she confronts numerous choices she has made along the way.
