Shun Li and the Poet
California Central Valley Premiere
Directed by Andrea Segre:
Shun Li works in a textile factory near Rome, slowly paying off the broker that brought her from China to Italy, while saving money so she can bring her young son to join her. She is suddenly transferred to work as a bartender at a pub in a small town along the Venetian Lagoon. The pub is the hangout of the local fishermen, including Bepi, a handsome old Slav immigrant nicknamed "The Poet." A tender, delicate friendship grows between Shun Li and Bepi. But gossip soon threatens their innocent relationship, a bond that had once transcended two very different, yet not at all distant cultures. Winner of 2012 David di Donatello Award (Italian Academy) for Best Actress (Tao Zhao)
Length: 100 minutes Production: Italy, 2011 Languages: in Italian, English subtitles
