The Italian Cultural Institute of Washington presents the screening of the film-documentary “The Genius of Gianni Versace Alive” directed by Salvatore Zannino, to celebrate this extraordinary Italian fashion designer’s life and contributions to beauty in the film, music, and fashion industries.

“Gianni Versace’s life was such a compelling story that I felt [it] needed to be told. He empowered so many people in his life. The exploration of his Made In Italy fashion created him as a maverick and style icon.” ~ Salvatore Zannino
