Federico Fellini's Nights of Cabiria (4K Restoration)

In honor of Art House Convergence’s Art House Theater Day, we are offering RAW audiences a classic Fellini film for a one-time-only screening in our cinema.

Art House Theater Day (AHTD) is an annual program of AHC that brings audiences together to celebrate all that art house theaters – and independent film – contribute to our cultural landscape: ambitious and innovative art that provokes, challenges, entertains, and inspires. 2025 marks the 6th annual Art House Theater Day, which launched in 2016 in more than 150 cinemas across the country.

“A deep, wrenching and eloquent filmgoing experience.” – The New York Times

Nights of Cabiria (Le notti di Cabiria) is a 1957 drama co-written and directed by Federico Fellini. The film features Giulietta Masina as Cabiria, a sex worker living in Rome. The film also stars François Périer and Amedeo Nazzari and is based on a story by Fellini, who expanded it into a screenplay along with his co-writers Ennio Flaiano, Tullio Pinelli , and Pier Paolo Pasolini.

In addition to the best actress award at the Cannes Film Festival for Giulietta Masina, Nights of Cabiria won the 1958 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. This marked the second consecutive year that both Italy and Fellini won the award.

In 2008, the film was included on the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage’s 100 Italian films to be saved, a list of 100 films that “have changed the collective memory of the country between 1942 and 1978.” The film is widely considered to be one of Fellini’s best works, as well as one of the greatest films of the 1950s.
