Italian Film Days coming to Cyprus with free screenings
The Italian Embassy in Cyprus is organising an Italian Film Festival from September 9 to 15 for the second year, in collaboration with the Italian production company IMAGO, the Rialto Theatre in Limassol and other cinemas in Cyprus.
The aim of the Festival is to present to Cyprus some of the best Italian film productions in recent years.
