Event Description : MOVIE “Nabbie’s Love” Japanese with English Subtitles
Synopsis : Nanako quits her job in Tokyo to return to her home island where her grandfather, Keitatsu and grandmother, Nabbie, still live. In the ferry is SunRa who, dressed in a dandy tropical outfit, seems to have some nostalgic link to the island. One day, Nanako sees Nabbie and SunRa in each other’s arms. The illicit love affair shocks the conservative islanders. A formal clan meeting is held, the shaman is summoned and her verdict is that SunRa must leave and Nabbie must never see him again. Nanako learns from Keitatsu that, 60 years ago, Nabbie fell in love with SunRa but was forced to separate from him because of her family’s standing in the community. SunRa had to leave the island. Later on, Keitatsu, who is younger than Nabbie, married into her family. He also tells Nanako the secret of the bougainvillea flowers. Nanako begins to cry as the old man wearily tells her he never thought he’d see SunRa again. Nabbie never could forget her lover and she had faithfully written him once a year.

Film Screening of ‘La ciociara’ by Vittorio De Sica
The Italian Embassy Cultural Centre invites you to the film screening of ‘La ciociara’ by Vittorio De Sica. The movie is subtitled in English and will be screened on Thursday, 22 August 2019 @ 7:00 p.m. at Italian Embassy Cultural Centre.
La ciociara (English: Two Women), roughly translated as “The Woman from Ciociaria”) is a 1960 Italian film directed by Vittorio De Sica. It tells the story of a woman trying to protect her young daughter from the horrors of war. The film was adapted by De Sica and Cesare Zavattini from the novel of the same name written by Alberto Moravia. The story is fictional, but based on actual events of July 1943 in Rome and rural Lazio, and during what the Italians call the Marocchinate.
Summary: Cesira is a beautiful widow and a successful grocery store owner in Rome. WWII is raging, and she fears for her beloved daughter, 13-year-old Rosetta, amid the daily bombings. They travel to the village where Cesira was born, where Cesira believes they will be safer. There, they are happy even as food dwindles. A young intellectual, Michele, falls in love with Cesira, who is too consumed with the well-being of her daughter and their survival to return his timid advances. As the allies advance, Cesira decides to return to Rome – and encounter the horrors of war at last.
