The most moving love letter to cinema, film, and memory in film history. Cinema Paradiso was made at a time when Italian cinemas were losing audiences to television and soap operas. It stands as a heartfelt tribute to the magic of the big screen and the power of storytelling. Set in postwar Sicily, the story follows young choirboy Toto, who becomes fascinated by movies while helping the local priest censor film reels. In the projection room, he befriends the kind projectionist Alfredo – a bond that shapes his entire life. Years later, Toto returns home to find that Alfredo has passed away, leaving him a touching final gift. Good to know: * Language: Italian * Subtitles: Norwegian
