21st Anniversary
The Italian Film Festival celebrates its 21st anniversary in 2014. Thanks to the unwavering support of the Italian Cultural Institute and its core venues, the Festival has brought the best of Italian cinema to the United Kingdom and welcomed some of the most beloved and iconic figures in the Italian industry to present their films and discuss their careers with UK audiences.
The 2014 Festival will feature some of the most noteworthy Italian films of the past year and restored gems from the past. Among the titles already confirmed are the glorious restoration of Luchino Visconti’s rarely seen Venice Leone d’Oro winner Vaghe stelle dell’orsa / Sandra, starring Claudia Cardinale, and Fabio Grassadonia and Antonio Piazza’s ice cool Sicilian hit man thriller Salvo which won the Critics Week Grand Prix at Cannes in 2013.
