Conchiglie
Force of Arms
During the winter of 1943, the German Army halted the American advance in the mountains of Italy; back-and-forth combat decimates Joe Peterson's platoon. On leave in Naples, Joe meets WAC lieutenant Eleanor MacKay; initially cool, she begins to melt during a bombing raid. Their romance develops despite Joe's periodic returns to the front. But whether he'll come back in the end becomes more than doubtful.
Richard Hank Sciaroni: Shot Down
Through the perils of air combat, and an emergency landing behind enemy lines in Italy, Hank Sciaroni utilized his capability to speak Italian to help get him and his men to safety as the Germans closed in.
Mina in Barilla commercials
Music and images that have made advertising history in Italy. This is a beautiful collection containing the commercials that Mina made for Barilla from 1965 to 1970, featuring the work of the greatest Italian directors, costume designers and make-up artists. This series of commercials bears the signature of set designer and costume designer (and, for the occasion, also director) Piero Gherardi, who sets the Barilla commercials in unusual and evocative locations and creates very special and imaginative outfits for Mina.
