About Napoli New York:

Naples lies in ruins after the devastation of WWII. Amidst the rubble-strewn streets of the city, young Carmine (Antonio Guerra) and Celestina (Dea Lanzaro), try to survive as best they can.

Eventually reaching the bustling, unknown metropolis, Carmine and Celestina must quickly find a way to adapt to their new surroundings, and set out to find Celestina’s older sister (Anna Lucia Pierro) who emigrated years earlier…
