The Italian Film Festival Cardiff (IFFC) organised by Dr Luca Paci (University of Swansea) and Dr Luisa Pèrcopo (University of Cardiff) is back for a third year at Cardiff’s Chapter Arts Centre, where all screenings will take place between 22 and 26 November 2017.

This year’s IFFC programme, offers a thought-provoking and entertaining glimpse of life in contemporary Italy with its selection of thirteen independent films exploring the universal themes of belonging and identity in a rapidly changing world, from the perspective of established directors and the new generation alike.

From comedy and drama to animation, this year’s festival has something for everybody, and includes 7 UK premieres and the Italian submission for the 2018 Oscars.
