PANE AMARO / BITTER BREAD
DIR: GIANFRANCO NORELLI / 103 MIN / USA / DOC / 2009
“Pane Amaro/Bitter Bread” has been saluted as the first comprehensive
and historically accurate depiction on film of the experiences of
Italian immigrants in America. The film weaves together personal
accounts, comments by scholars and a treasure trove of rare
photographs and footage to document the moving story of the Italian
journey from immigrant victims of prejudice to prominent members of
American society, a story that speaks to the commonality in immigrant
experiences past and present.
