friday night italian film festival:
Italian film is as much a part of Italian culture as the food, music and people! The Italian Film Festival celebrates the 38th year the Italian Cultural Society has presented these special Italian and Italian-American films.
Each film starts at 7:30pm - bring your family and friends and enjoy the social time before the film (doors open at 7:00pm) and join in the discussion after! The Italian Film Festival begins annually, showing each film only one time. The first films screen in September and October, then continue in January, February, and April, with the final film screening in May. The Friday Night Film Festival Series is organized by ICS Member Bob Masullo.

An unforgettable romantic comedy, “Italian For Beginners” is a warm story of about seven perfect strangers in Denmark and the shared journey of discovery that changes each of their lives!

Then, as they realize the class offers more than just language lessons, they join together on a quest to Italy with the renewed desire to pursue the romances of their lives. Once there, these world-weary students who thought there was nothing left to learn from life will get an education that will change everything they know about love.
