20 Cigarettes has won a slew of awards from bodies such as the Venice Film Festival, David Di Donatello Awards (Italian Academy Awards) and Italian Golden Globes and has catapulted its young director into the global spotlight.
Amadei, who will be introducing Festival sessions of his film and participating in Q&As, was the only civilian survivor of the November 2003 suicide bombing at the Italian military headquarters in Nasiriyah, Iraq. His experiences prompted him to write a book about the attack and the ensuing media storm, which he has since adapted into a screen version. The film is exceptional, and to have Amadei feature in a Q&A makes this a must-attend event.
