Last night we screened the beautiful and heartfelt La Tigre e la Neve, directed by and starring Roberto Benigni. A film that perfectly balances humour, romance, and emotion. It took us on a journey from the poetic streets of Italy to the chaos of war, all through the lens of love.
🍷 An Evening of Italian Atmosphere
From the moment guests arrived, our upstairs was transformed into a little corner of Italy. Drinks were shared, pizzas were hot and the buzz of conversation filled the room.
As always, it wasn’t just about watching a film, it was about creating an experience.
🎥 The Film: Love, Laughter & Emotion
La Tigre e la Neve follows Attilio, a passionate and eccentric poet, whose love for Vittoria drives him to extraordinary lengths.
There were laughs, there were quiet moments, and for many, a few tears too. It’s the kind of film that stays with you, reminding us of the power of love, even in the most difficult circumstances.
