American director Abel Ferrara will present his documentary film Piazza Vittorio, which was screened at the 74th Venice Film Festival last September as an out-of-competition selection, in Rome on May 31 at the Apollo 11 cultural centre. The film shows a Rome full of heart, where emigration, whether hated, tolerated, or understood, in the end takes on the capital city's spirit and becomes fully Roman.

The film takes its title from the eponymous Roman square that has become known as a sort of cultural melting pot. Many of the subjects interviewed in the film reflect this reality, such as an Egyptian butcher who says he feels like a Roman and is proud of it.
