Desc: Sissignora: Directed by Ferdinando Maria Poggioli. With Maria Denis, Leonardo Cortese, Emma Gramatica, Irma Gramatica. Poggioli's masterpiece, a precursor to Neorealism, was shot on location in Genoa and tells the story of a 'humiliated and mistreated' maid, who sacrifices herself to save a child. The mainstream flirts with anti-bourgeoisie sentiments. "The dance hall scene is strikingly beautiful". (G. Buttafava)
