The 2016 Lavazza Italian Film Festival begins tomorrow in Sydney with the comedy Perfect Strangers (in Italian Perfetti Sconosciuti). Festival director Elysia Zeccola talked to us about this film, but also about some of the gems not to be missed this year: Fiore, by Claudio Giovannesi, set in a prison, but also Italian Race (Veloce come in vento), with Stefano Accorsi and Matilda De Angelis, and many others.
