See all- SICC Showing #23 - Io Capitano @ Bio ZitaZita, Stockholm
While the weather may finally be getting warmer, there are still a few SICC events left before our summer break! Come and join us on Thursday 23rd May at the Bio Zita to watch the Italian film 'Io Capitano,' with English subtitles.
As usual, we will gather after the film to meet each other and have a chat about the film.
NB - We have an active community on both Facebook and Instagram where we also advertise our events, so not everyone at the event will be from Meetup. You can find links to these on our Meetup page, if you prefer to follow us there.
About the film:
Two young boys who leave Senegal for Europe are faced with the horrific reality that immigrants experience in the desert and beyond, in Matteo Garone's (director of 'Gomorrah' and 'Dogman') deeply moving masterpiece.
Seydou and Moussa from Dakar, Senegal dream of being pop stars. To chase this dream, they have to cross both the desert and the ocean.
The film was nominated for Best International Feature at this year's Oscars, and the story is inspired by actual stories of journeys taken by migrants from Africa to Europe.
With many moments of laugh out loud humour and joy, Garrone's drama is full of hope, heartbreak and truth, whilst looking directly at the harrowing realities around the world of those with dreams of a better life. It was shot in Senegal, Morocco and Italy.Ticket info:
