A docufiction on the history of Italians in Luxembourg. "The Arrival of Youth" traces a century of Italian immigration history in Luxembourg, told through the saga of a family whose different generations follow one another: from the arrival in 1909 of Mario (Antonio Spagnuolo), hired in the mine, to today, where Anita (Julie Kieffer) teaches Luxembourgish to "new immigrants". Five generations, protagonists of as many historical eras, between wars, Resistance, deportation, love, passion, courage, death, redemption. The backdrop is the football team Jeunesse Esch-sur-Alzette, whose players were mostly Italian and all "sons of the mine". The film, inspired by the book "Tanti italiani fa... in Lussemburgo" by Remo Ceccarelli (editions PassaParola), alternates fiction and archival documents. The screening will be followed by a meeting with director Fabio Bottani and actress Mirka Costanzi (in French and Luxembourgish).
