The festival aims to provide Vietnamese audiences with a privileged insight into contemporary Italian cinema. Through six outstanding films ranging from drama to comedy, many of which have won awards at prestigious festivals, the 2023 Italian Film Festival will depict modern Italian society facing new challenges while trying to connect with and preserve its ancient traditional heritage.
Among the films to be screened at the festival are The Hummingbird, Diabolik, September, Diabolik Ginko Attacks, Leonora, and The Return of Casanova.
According to Italian Ambassador to Vietnam Marco Della Seta, films are the fastest and most effective way to introduce Vietnamese people to contemporary Italy. "I hope the Vietnamese audience will have a good time with family and friends, relax and enjoy these interesting movies," he said.
