La Vita è Bella

An Italian American girl living in the shadows of a socially corrupt American society dreams of leaving the country. Sure, any country would do, but she rather go to Italy. No shocker there. Tired of the tedious and depressing life she has in the states, Giuliana begs her mother to take her to Italy, and on her 16th birthday all her dreams seem to come true. Rome, Florence, Milan, and Venice here she comes! But wait, that's not the location on the ticket. Calabria, Italia the southern region of Italy? Time to visit the family? Join Giuliana as she spends a month digging up her Italian roots and meeting some cute Italian boys on the way.
