Discover Frank Capra's Roots in Bisacquino

The first stop on your journey is Bisacquino, the birthplace of Frank Capra, one of the most famous Italian-American directors in Hollywood during the 1930s and '40s. Capra's story is closely connected to the wave of Sicilian emigration to America, as many sought success across the ocean. Among his masterpieces is "It's a Wonderful Life," ranked 11th on the American Film Institute's list of the 100 greatest American films of all time in 1998.

The second stop takes you to Palazzo Adriano, a charming village that hosted the filming of Giuseppe Tornatore's "Cinema Paradiso." In this enchanting setting, you can visit the original sets and a museum dedicated to the film, guided by local residents. You'll also have the chance to meet one of the film's stars, adding a special touch to the experience.
