To Our Patrons
Welcome to the Cleveland Italian Film Festival 2013.
The Cleveland Italian Film Festival is the first independent
film festival in Northern Ohio to exclusively showcase
Italian award winning films in a professional theatre setting
and has sold out every year since its inception.
People of all nationalities enjoy the splendor and beauty of
Italian cinema and its artistic impact in the world of film.
My appreciation to Basil Russo and to those who have the
insight to embrace the importance and cultural impact of Italian
film and support this cultural endeavor in Cleveland.
Thank you for joining us in experiencing the poignancy and
sensual beauty of Italy through her films.
Enjoy the show!
