In this Papamutes episode, we delve into the creation of the film *Innocenti*, where filmmaker Steve Mancini uncovers the stories of those who lived through World War II in the Abruzzo region of Italy. Through heartfelt interviews, Mancini explores the horror of war on families and communities, shedding light on a crucial yet often overlooked part of history. Mancini explains that many immigrants left due to poverty, with families establishing clubs like the Ateleta Club in Bloomfield, (Pittsburgh) which serves as a cultural hub for those from Abruzzo. Understanding this local connection adds depth to the film and illustrates the broader narrative of immigrant experiences in America.
