Special 2012 Events

In April, SDIFF will host Documentary filmmaker and professor Marco Bertozzi who will visit from Italy for a series of events in San Diego, including a screening and roundtable at MoPA on April 13th. Also in April, on the 26th SDIFF will present On the Waterfront: Little italy’s Fishing History, a special evening that will include a photo presentation followed by a documentary film. In May, CineCucina is two evenings of film all about food (and wine). Documentary filmmaking couple Gianfranco Norelli and Suma Kurien will screen their work in progress on Italians in California at MoPA May 24th. We return to the Birch North Park Theatre on May 26th where Donna Gabaccia will tell us how some New World plants got turned into Italian cuisine, before we see Senza Trucco, a fabulous film about four women who run a totally organic vineyard and make very delicious organic wines.
