Marcello Marcello Italy 1956. On the picturesque island of Amatrello there is a very unique dating tradition that keeps the young men busy: when a girl turns eighteen, every young man is invited to bring a gift for her first date. The gift is not for her, but for the father, who will ultimately determine who takes his daughter out for the first time. Smitten by the beautiful Elena, fisherman's son Marcello decides to win her heart, and sets out on a frantic quest to secure the perfect gift. And what will that gift be? And how will he get it? The whole village will get involved in a fast-paced and delightful romp! Winner of the Audience Choice Award at the St. Louis International Film Festival, and described variously as an "excellent Italian feel good romance!" and a "heartwarming and very entertaining film".
