This third issue presents two films set in Sicily, where the world of the mafia is an “invisible” presence but real and perceptible in everyday life. I cento passi from the director Marco Tullio Giordana, a historical reconstruction of the period of the seventies in which we have as protagonist a generation rich in dreams and ideals; Johnny Stecchino, crossed by amusing misunderstandings, tells the story of a naive school bus driver who, without his knowledge, takes the place of a ferocious mafia repentant, is by directed and portraied by Roberto Benigni.

Cinema Italia is a series of issues on Italian cinema aimed at foreign students of all levels.

The selected and proposed films are easily found on the market or can be purchased online.
