Another highlight of this year’s Italian Language Week is the screening of the comedy Vecchi Pazzi by Swiss film director Sabine Boss. Vecchi Pazzi tells the story of an aged diva sent to an elderly home where a former constructionist awaits his own death. The diva has a caring daughter and the constructionist has a nephew determined to claim his inheritance. Through laughter (and a few tears) the film does not disappoint with its heartwarming tale set in the beautiful region of Ticino. Before each screening, Dr. Massimo Scaglioni and Dr. Marco Cucco, from the Faculty of Communication at the University of Lugano will speak about television and film production in Switzerland’s Italian-speaking region.

70 seats. First come, first serve. No online registration.

Cocktail and an exhibition on Gotthard Railway Tunnel will be held from 6:00 to 6:40pm.
