Welcome to Bits and Bites on Italian Cinema… and Other Stuff, a lively and thoughtful video podcast series hosted by Tonia Serrao Soppelsa, Director of ICFF Cultural Events. In each episode, Tonia serves up a passionate, personal, and often playful take on cinema—especially Italian cinema—while exploring how film connects to culture, identity, history, and life itself.
From reflections on timeless classics to fresh takes on contemporary films, from the power of youth cinema to the magic of musicals, Bits and Bites dives into the art of storytelling on screen. With warmth, wit, and a true love of the seventh art, Tonia invites you to think, feel, and maybe even laugh along as she uncovers what makes cinema so unforgettable.
Whether you’re a film buff, a casual moviegoer, or just curious about the cultural magic behind the movies, this series offers accessible insights, hidden gems, and, yes—a few delightful detours into “other stuff.”
Ciao for now. And don’t forget the popcorn.
