Course seeks to explore the complexity and evolution of modern Italy through films, Italian and otherwise, from the immediate postwar period to the present day. We will search for the contemporary soul of Italy through the greatness, weakness, priorities, and foibles of its people, as depicted in the social and political commentary of the movies. We shall also explore computer visuals and contemporary Italian websites. Organized by the MIT Italy Program.
