Ciao, Professore!

From Academy Award(R)-nominated director Lina Wertmuller (Best Director -- SEVEN BEAUTIES; SWEPT AWAY) comes this spirited comedy hailed by critics coast-to-coast for its vitality and raunchy good humor. CIAO, PROFESSORE! is the story of an upper-class teacher from conservative Northern Italy who, due to a computer error, finds himself teaching third-grade truants at a ramshackle school in the south. Yet along the way, the earnest "professor" learns some valuable lessons when he begins to see life through the fresh, vibrant eyes of his scrappy young students! Don't miss this rambunctious comedy -- a film absolutely brimming with life!

Product Notes

In this charming comedy, Marco Sperelli (Paolo Villagio), a divorced teacher from upper-class northern Italy, takes an assignment to teach a group of street-smart southern Italian village kids. He finds that to teach the children, he first must find them and bring them to school. When the children's rough life forces him to drop his no-nonsense approach, he finds that the kids have as much to teach him as he does them.
