Are you in need of a bit of motivation? These inspirational personalities could help us all - women and men who did big and little acts of courage to save some, to help others, to survive difficult situations, and to make their dreams come true. We'll talk about Italian history, and the Italian constitution and its main principle; we'll also talk about mafia from a very unusual perspective; we'll cover poetry and aphorisms; and we'll end the video-course on a lighter note talking about... the mountains and the sea!

Five personalities, five films, five video-lessons, where every activity is introduced, explained and corrected, and great practice is provided in terms of listening and reading comprehension, as well as grammar and vocab revision. But mainly this video-course will make us think and write (in Italian, needless to say) about courage, mutual support, freedom of choice, mental health, self-realisation.
