Cinema Giovane is an insightful way to study the evolution of Italian history, society, ideology and behavior.

Cinema Giovane hopes to introduce students (foreign and Italian) in Florence to contemporary topics present in Italian culture by investigating issues related to fashion, sexuality, politics, the media, youth culture, the family, and Italy’s changing landscape. Films will be introduced by Prof. Vito Zagarrio, film director and Professor of Cinema at NYU Florence and Roma3. A special guest speaker, associated with the film, will be present to discuss the film with students after each screening (screenwriters, directors, technicians, or other).

Movies will be shown in Italian with English subtitles.
