About Welcome to San Salvario
In San Salvario, the area in Turin with the largest number of immigrants, an unemployed photographer adapts himself to working for them. They are eager to send their families and friends at home pictures proving their success in Italy. After being fired from the local newspaper and practically penniless, the protagonist gets more sympathy from the San Salvario foreign people than from his fellow citizens, who seem to be only interested in the profit they can make with multi-ethnic contacts.
Directed by Enrico Verra, Welcome to San Salvario leans on a strong ensemble — Riccardo Lombardo, Fabrizio Monetti, Laura Curino — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1999.
