Proiezione del film "Briciole sul mare" - October 9th

Dear Friends,

On October 9, in celebration of Italian-American Heritage Month in the U.S., the critically acclaimed Italian comedy-drama film Briciole Sul Mare will make its North American debut in Faneuil Hall in Boston.

Briciole Sul Mare (subtitled in English) tells the story of a fisherman living in the south of Italy whose regular fishing trip takes an unexpected turn when he falls asleep. During his slumber, he drifts south to the waters of beautiful, sunny Sicily. There, he meets many new people, including Salvo, a young man who finds himself in a whirlwind of romance, family drama and legal trouble.

Following the premiere screening of Briciole Sul Mare, The Platters will perform some of their classic hits (Smoke Gets in Your Eyes, Only You, GreatPretender, My Prayer, etc.). In addition to performances by The Platters, Italian recording artist and Briciole Sul Mare actor Walter Nestola with Paola Gruppuso (from Italy’s RAI-TV’s The Voice) will perform their songs from the official motion picture soundtrack,
