Discover Italy through Cinema
Additional information
Discover Italian language and culture through 12 iconic films, from Ladri di biciclette to La grande bellezza.
Each week, students will independently watch one film and then meet for an engaging discussion focused on language, cultural themes, and cinematic expression.
The course combines linguistic practice with cultural exploration. Guided by Barbara, you’ll analyze dialogue, context, and key scenes while deepening your understanding of Italian society, humor, and history — learning Italian through the stories that have shaped it.
You can choose to enroll in the full 12-lesson program or select individual lessons to focus on the movie that interest you most.
