This book proposes an in-depth inquiry of five films (Bread and Chocolate, A Pain in the Ass, Queen of Hearts, The Mediterranean Forever, and Raging Bull), which deal with the Italian reality outside of Italy. The segment-by-segment examination of these works discloses parameters that can be used to define a deterritorialized culture which I name the Italic culture. This sort of synchronous and chronological seg-mentation of a film can assist scholars and students to better understand what constitutes the cinematographic narrative of ethnic films or, if the reader prefers, films on ethnicity, though one does not necessarily mean the other
