NUOVE VISIONI: ITALIAN CINEMA NOW - LAST DAYS OF SCREENING
In the wake of the celebrations of the beginning of cinema's second century and a new millennium, the Harvard Film Archive presents a synoptic look at Italian filmmaking over the last decade. The eleven films in this program reve
This program is presented in partnership with the Consulate General of Italy in Boston and Professionisti Italiani a Boston. Special thanks: Giuseppe Pastorelli, Ubaldo Panitti, Antonio Talarico, Cinzia Del Zoppo - Consulate General of Italy in Boston; Giovanni Abbadessa, Valentina Cecchi - Professionisti Italiani a Boston; Carla Cattani - Cinecitta; Giuliana Bruno - Department of Visual and Environmental Studies, Harvard. al an important national cinema that continues to renew itself even as it absorbs and honors its past. Throughout the history of cinema, the films of Italy have ranked among the most important and influential, from the groundbreaking epics of the 1910s through postwar neorealism, to the contributions decades later of Bertolucci, Wertmuller and the Taviani Brothers. Today new generations of directors are surveying a country marked by the rise of visual and social technologies, waves of immigration, deep-rooted regional differences, recent political scandals and a sputtering economy. These filmmakers do not make up one school but rather exemplify a number of traditions and styles, from realism to social melodrama to Fellinian grotesquerie, finding inspiration in a resilient culture constantly in dialogue with its own history and traditions while remaining open to the future.

Food is one of Italy's most wonderful cultural contributions to the world, on a par with its unsurpassed art, architecture and other famous innovations.

You will cook in a newly equipped kitchen at the Dante Alighieri Society in Kendall Square, Cambridge, and enjoy your meal in intimate and beautiful surroundings. Chef Instructor Angelo Guida, a native of Naples, who previously worked at award-winning restaurants Gusto in Rome and Bocca di Lupoin London, will teach the courses. Chef Guida co-teaches a Food and Culture course in Siena for University of Massachusetts Boston. Offered in collaboration with the Dante Alighieri Society of Massachusetts.

CLUSTER A CAPPELLA - U.S. TOUR 
Cluster presents elevated original arrangements and compositions, all a cappella. Covering upbeat 80's remixes and presenting beautifully crafted and complex new songs, Cluster will bring their award-winning sound to locations up and down the east coast.
This fall, X Factor Italy stars, CLUSTER, return to the U.S. for a 2nd tour. One year ago, CLUSTER amazed discerning American audiences at Strathmore in North Bethesda, MD, with inventive vocal jazz and complex harmonic textures combined with a polished, exciting stage show. Headlining the VoCALnation a cappella festival, the show brought a European legend to their U.S. fans live for the first time, and the show left fans begging for more.
Cluster is an all-vocal group founded in Genoa in 2004 by five young students of the Paganini Conservatory. Since then, they have performed concerts in Italy and throughout Europe showcasing their unique style, which combines elements of pop and jazz fusion. Their first album, Cement (2007), is the first disc in Italian history to be awarded 3 CARA nominations (Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards) and it reached the number one spot on iTunes Italia in April 2008. In 2008, they released an EP of tracks performed on the TV show X-Factor. In 2009 they released ''Steps'', a natural evolution from ''Cement'', which demonstrated their artistic growth. Later in 2009, they released ''Christmas Present'', an ambitious, popular, and innovative project that received several CARAs in 2010, including the award for Best Christmas Album.
Their latest video, Ti Sento, has already captured serious attention worldwide. Meanwhile, they let audiences in on their sense of humor with their growing series of YouTube's greatest hits which continue to amuse, amaze and entertain.
