Richmond Italian Film Festival
This inaugural festival will showcase some of the best Italian films of the last two years and one restored film from the heyday of Italian cinema. Our aim is to bring the finest Italian films each year to Richmond, to revive an important international film tradition, to involve students in the curatorial process and presentation of the films, and to connect with the local community and Italian institutions in the region. UR Campus will host screenings on campus with culminating film feature showing at Byrd Theater on Monday, March 24.
Hosted by the Department of Languages, Literatures, & Cultures and the Film Studies Program, with the support of the Cultural Affairs Committee, A&S Dean’s Office, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, Office of International Education, the Bonner Center for Civic Engagement, the Boatwright Memorial Library, and Italian Cultural Institute (Washington, D.C.).
