(2014)  Narrated by Isabella Rossellini. Would you risk your life to save a stranger and never talk about it?  MY ITALIAN SECRET tells the story of sports idol Gino Bartali, physician Giovanni Borromeo and other Italians worked with Jewish leaders and high-ranking officials of the Catholic Church to carry out ingenious schemes to rescue Jews, partisans and refugees from Nazi-occupied Italy.  Gino Bartali is a sports legend; but his most daring triumph came when he risked his life over and over to save Jews threatened by Nazi extermination. The story of Bartali and the secret network he worked with stands in for the stories of thousands of Italians who risked their lives to save others from capture and death. As an entire continent was engulfed in a genocide which took the lives of most Jews in Nazi occupied Europe (nearly 6 million people), more than 80 percent of Italy's Jews survived. Bartali, like most of the rescuers, never sought recognition or reward. Few of those he helped knew his name or what role he played in their rescue. Rated PG-13; 90 minutes.

Special discussion with Linda Dubin to follow screening.

This conversational Italian class focuses on learning the language and speaking the language, rather than learning the grammar. Practice conversations for various social settings: traveling, restaurants, museums, church, shopping, etc.  Participants are encouraged to attend all of the sessions to maximize the learning experience. Please stop by the Help Desk to pick up a copy of Colloquial Italian: The Complete Course for Beginners by Sylvia Lymbery.

Class will not meet on Tuesday, April 5 because the Library's tax levy and trustee vote will be held in the Community Room that day. 

Learn to play the ukulele.
