In this film, the lovely Mira Sorvino plays a young American woman; her mother (who is Italian) dies and Mira's character travels to Italy, where she will discover her Italian roots. The plot is a bit simple and the movie doesn't get to wake up the interest of the spectator; maybe one reason for it is the fact that there aren't good location shots nor landscape images, so it's difficult to feel the Italian essence.
