Italian Film: My Country

Uncategorized Download To My Calendar
Luciano ?Lucky? De Luca, a young Italian-American with a passion for photography, lives a quiet middle-class life on the northwest side of Chicago with his ailing immigrant father, Vincenzo. When Vincenzo confides in Lucky about a past indiscretion ? a son he fathered during his service in the Italian army (before meeting and marrying Lucky?s late mother in the U.S.) he sets off a whirlwind of questions and emotions. Passing away shortly after, VIncenzo leaves Lucky with only a name and childhood photo of the boy. After much soul-searching, Lucky decides he?ll travel to Rome to find the boy, Francesco, now in his mid-30?s, and convince him to take their father?s urn on a road-trip to Molise to the small paese where he was born, Castel San Vincenzo (IS).
