San Diego Italian Film Festival announces feStivale 2013, October 18th – November 2nd.
FeStivale 2013 will bring to San Diego fourteen of Italy's finest films of 2013, as well as an array of its most cherished cultural gifts: opera, music, delicious cuisine, and a line-up of great talent.
Italian musical ensemble Khaossia will make its west coast appearance in San Diego with two shows of their unique brand of music, dance, narrative and film. Acclaimed actress and director Maria Grazia Cucinotta, star of Il postino, will give SDIFF audiences the US premier of her film, a romantic comedy satire about early films. A focus on documentary film distinguishes feStivale 2013, with special events showcasing films by Italian directors living outside Italy; directors Marco Bertozzi and Paul Tana will discuss the movies with audience.
Special guest Maria Grazia Cucinotta will be honored at the beautiful new Downtown Library, and Documentary Directors Marco Bertozzi and Paul Tana will be guests of honor at a reception at the University of San Diego. The Gala provides a perfect setting for a visit from Francesco Bruni, award-winning director of Scialla (Easy), which will be screened at the event.
