Anna Filameno's 'So You Wanna be Italian?' is a unique experience. Actress/writer Anna Filameno takes you on a journey of self-discovery as she explores her roots through vignettes written in a style which lives between poetry and prose. Through a tour-de-force of powerful images and experiences, sometimes dreamlike, sometimes biographical, you learn the potent force Italian figures such as Valentino, Fellini, Sinatra, Anna Magnani, Aradia 'le strega' and many others had on the life of this brilliant artist. Anna's passionate work explores her relationship to her roots through these historic Italian figures and inspires each of us to do the same in our own lives."Who am I?" I thought... "And how do I find the pieces of myself that I have lost along the way?"Each page has a beautiful background graphic art illustration that helps tell the story of each vignette."I begin with the Storytellers and Dreamers..." Filameno mixes stream of consciousness with biography and always returns to her personal experience. The result is an uplifting and unforgettable reminder that we all have roots and, in exploring them, find ourselves.
