What happens

Stramilano is a 1929 short film directed by Corrado D'Errico and produced by the company of the Za Bum music hall of Teatro Excelsior by Mario Mattoli and Luciano Ramo for Istituto Luce, a fascist government created organisation. The film marked Italy's first contribution to the city symphonies cycle and was the earliest example of such a film to emerge from a fascist nation. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
