Sogno/Miracle of Ferragosto
Status: Completed Script.
In the mid-nineties, the number of Italians who returned to Italy and those who left was even for the first time since the great emigration before the war. The question however on Gene Accomando’s mind is why did they leave in the first place.
The third generation Italian-American has come to Italy in search of love. A year later, the heartbroken English Teacher is about to leave for good. But not before visiting the village his grandparents left some 60 years earlier. On the eve of Ferragosto, a miracle sends him back in time to Fascist Italy where he meets his grandparents just as they ponder their own departure for America. In the past, Gene finds himself in the unique position to change the outcome of history, his own and that of the world, until he meets the woman of his dreams.
Set in Italy of days-gone-by, Sogno is a romantic homage to the era of Great Italian Cinema.
