Gia Coppola has teamed up with Peroni Nastro Azzuro to bring the Grazie Cinema Series, which celebrates the legacy of Italian film, that will touch down in New York, Los Angeles and Miami throughout summer. Last night, July 29th, 2015, friends and tastemakers came together in Los Angeles at The Mondrian’s Skybar to experience some of Italy’s finest entertainment.

For the second edition of the series, close friend of Coppola and talented filmmaker, Tracy Antonopoulos, hosted a special screening of The Bicycle Thief. The film was prefaced by the exclusive short film, The Magic Word, created and directed by Antonopoulos, which has been applauded by The New York Times. Guests, which included Ryan Cabrera and Austin Brown (nephew of Michael Jackson) sipped Peroni and enjoyed classic Italian hors d’oeuvres poolside with the breathtaking view of the city below.
