LUCHINO VISCONTI: THE LEOPARD | Dec. 13 at AFS Cinema 

Born into a prominent family of Milanese aristocrats, Luchino Visconti had a rare perspective on social class and familial tradition that informs his work. His films, small at first, grew to operatic proportions as his career went on, with a thematic grandeur to equal their visual opulence. We are honored to present several new restorations of his films as part of this touring series.
Here AFS Board Member & Former Programmer Chale Nafus speaks on Luchino Visconti's film THE LEOPARD, which will screen Dec. 13.
