“Placido's film Romanzo criminale is an excellent source to analyze issues of crime, terrorism and legality in today's Italy. This well-crafted study guide offers not only a thorough analysis of the film but also insightful resources to understand and deepen the societal and cultural issues the film presents. A wide range of activities, in a content-based approach, are designed to develop all four language skills.
Great supplement for intermediate courses!”
