Plot:	Salvatore, a successful film director, returns to his native Sicilian village for the funeral of his old friend Alfredo, and we learn the story of his childhood in the small village.
Overview:	The story of a lifelong love affair with the movies, "Cinema Paradiso" tells of a young boy in a small Italian Village, where the only pastime is a visit to the movies at the Cinema Paradiso. Enchanted by the flickering images, Salvatore yearns for the secret of the cinema's magic and is overjoyed when Alfredo, the projectionist, agrees to reveal the mysteries of movie making to him. As their friendship grows, so does Salvatore, growing older with his good friend and the movies he adores, learning from both of them how to court his first love, and dreaming of one day making movies of his own. When the day comes for Salvatore to leave the village and pursue his dream, Alfredo makes the young man promise to never look back, to keep moving forward. And so he does, for thirty years, until the day a message arrives that beckons him back home to a secret, beautiful discovery that awaits him there. A true motion picture masterpiece, "Cinema Paradiso" won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and captured the hearts of moviegoers around the world. For those who have never seen it--and those who have never forgotten it--this extraordinary celebration of youth, friendship and the everlasting magic of movies is sure to captivate your heart and send your spirit soaring.
