ITALIANS IN MOVIES WILL START REGULAR PROGRAMMING IN JANUARY 2010.
Italians in Movies (IIM) is a project aimed at creating an environment where Italy and Hollywood can meet and share a common ground, thus building strong synergies with the local movie industry and the audience through the presentation of the best Italian film productions, its artists, and filmmakers.
Based in Los Angeles, IIM will host 10 events per year for members and guests. Each screening will be introduced and followed by a session of Q/A with the film’s director and/or actors. IIM will show not only films from and made in Italy, but also those in which an Italian talent - an actor, art director or composer – has been prominently involved. It may also include foreign productions shot on location in Italy.
The IIM’s Executive Board of Directors will be in charge of the films’ selection and presentation. It includes Silvia Bizio, Artistic Director of Cinema Italian Style, Paola Bellusci, Director of the Italian Film Commission, Doug De Luca, Executive Producer of the Jimmy Kimmel Show, Carlo Siliotto, composer, Anna Rita Dell’Atte, producer, Tomas Arana, actor, and Eleonora Granata, Film Acquisition & Festival Consultant.
