As statues of Columbus, Confederates and Founding Fathers fall from their pedestals, the nation\u2019s triumphalist myths are called into question. By exploring the shifting landscapes of American monumentality, this film interrogates the link between history and political action in a nation that must confront its past now more urgently than ever.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stonebreakers <\/em>has been included in the official selection of several festivals in the U.S and Italy (IFF Boston, Nastri d&#8217;Argento) and has received a number of recognition: Winner of the Imperdibili Award, MYmovies.it Audience Award, Special Mention, and Best Italian documentary at the prestigious Festival dei Popoli in 2022, as well as Winner for Best Independent Production Documentary and Best Film Editing at the 2023 History Film Festival, Rijeka, Croatia.<\/p>\n<p>Organized and sponsored by\u00a0the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/inserra-chair\/\">Inserra Endowed Chair in Italian and Italian American Studies\u00a0<\/a><br \/>\nin collaboration with the Italian Program (World Languages and Cultures Department) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/history\">History Department<\/a> at Montclair State University.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/MSUStonebreakers\">MORE INFO<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1dfAkpn_mnyMznoHFB7LMw3tBttO1ifZTaOH1qpG2Obo\">REGISTER HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q&amp;A with Director Valerio Ciriaci and Cinematographer Isaak J.
