About this event

In collaboration with the Italian Studies Program at USF and the Association of Teachers of Italian, we are welcoming Manuela Filomena to present her documentary, My Florita, A documentary feature film exploring the generations of Italians and Italian-Americans who have settled in southern Florida. The production artfully chronicles the journeys of Italian Floridians who have forged their destinies in the sun-drenched haven of South Florida. It casts a poignant gaze upon various Italian Floridians, capturing their tales of resilience and adaptation in this "New New Land." Moreover, our lens extends a warm embrace to the voices of Italian newcomers, weaving together their stories of hope and aspiration as they embark on a fresh chapter in the sultry embrace of South Florida.
