Summary: From case cover: Salvatore Di Vita torna dopo 40 anni a Giancaldo, paesino della Sicilia in cui è cresciuto, per i funerali di Alfredo, persona alla quale era molto legato poiché gli aveva insegnato ad amare il cinema. Tutto è completamente cambiato: il "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso" è caduto in rovina dopo essere stato trasformato in una sala a luci rosse ed Elena, unico amore della sua vita, è ormai sposata e con figli. . . From IMDb: A boy who grew up in a native Sicilian Village returns home as a famous director after receiving news about the death of an old friend. Told in a flashback, Salvatore reminiscences about his childhood and his relationship with Alfredo, a projectionist at Cinema Paradiso. Under the fatherly influence of Alfredo, Salvatore fell in love with film making, with the duo spending many hours discussing about films and Alfredo painstakingly teaching Salvatore the skills that became a stepping stone for the young boy into the world of film making. The film brings the audience through the changes in cinema and the dying trade of traditional film making, editing and screening. It also explores a young boy's dream of leaving his little town to foray into the world outside.
