THE GARDEN OF THE FINZI-CONTINIS(Il giardino dei Finzi-Contini)
Vittorio De Sica | Italy | 1970 | 35mm | 95 min | PG

This late-career triumph from Bicycle Thieves director Vittorio De Sica follows the lives of two Jewish families in the years leading up to World War II. “An autumnal work in two senses – the subject is the last golden flash of freedom before one of history's major tragedies… De Sica’ s final great work.” – Bright Lights Film Journal.
