The Discovery of Dawn chronicles two parallel stories set in Rome, one in 1981 and one in 2011. Caterina, the daughter of an university professor gunned down by the Red Brigades, is given a chance many years later to discover the truth about her father’s murder through a loop hole in time. Award-winning director and philosopher Susanna Nicchiarelli created an original visual interpretation of the novel by the ex Mayor of Rome Walter Veltroni. The novel has been translated into English by Pulitzer Prize winning cognitive scientist Douglas Hofstadter. Nicchiarelli will introduce the film and answer questions after the screening.
