Screening of the comedy film "A World Apart", a film by Riccardo Milani. With the participation of the Family Commission and exchange of greetings in collaboration with the Canal San Bovo Animators Group.
Michele, a teacher in Rome at the "Alberto Moravia" school, dissatisfied with his professional life in the big city, decides to turn his life around by moving to the small Marsican village of Rupe, a fictional name for Opi, in the heart of the Abruzzo national park. Together with the vice principal Agnese, he must do everything possible to keep open the small school named after Cesidio Gentile, the Abruzzese poet and shepherd known as "Jurico." The multi-class school, due to the demographic decline particularly pronounced in the internal areas and thus due to a lack of new enrollments, seems destined for closure and subsequent merger with the school system of a tourist center in Alto Sangro, the imaginary town of Castel Romito (a name that evokes Castel di Sangro). Through some stratagems and the particular commitment of the teachers, the school will instead be saved, thus becoming a symbol of hope for the future of small communities in mountainous areas. Directed by: Riccardo Milani. A film with:Antonio Albanese, Virginia Raffaele, Sergio Saltarelli, Alessandra Barbonetti. Duration: 113 minutes.
Free entry.
