L'emigrante

In this quirky 1973 Italian comedy film, Adriano Celentano stars as Peppino Cavallo, a grown man driven by an unrelenting quest to find his father, Saturnino (also played by Celentano), who mysteriously disappeared on the journey of a lifetime - emigrating to America in search of fortune. Years later, Peppino's obsession takes a unexpected turn as he sets sail for America himself, but with a disguise that will keep his true identity under wraps. With its lighthearted tone and humorous take on the immigrant experience, "L'emigrante" (aka Little Funny Guy) is a charming, entertaining ride.
