“UMBERTO E”
A documentary film by
Anton Evangelista
This is an epic story of Umberto Evangelista, a dynamic and charming ninety-year-old Italian immigrant living in New York City.
A real-life Cinderella tale, "UMBERTO E" leads us along his path of personal triumphs over childhood abandonment, harsh treatment in orphanages and a rejecting stepmother. In spite of all of his adversities, Umberto chose love and forgiveness as his weapons of ‘revenge,’ which lead to finding the love of his life - his wife Luisa, and the new life they would have with their children in coming to America.
