Stramilano is a 1929 short film directed by Corrado D'Errico and produced by the company of the Za Bum music hall of Teatro Excelsior by Mario Mattoli and Luciano Ramo for Istituto Luce, a fascist government created organisation.
[1] Stramilano, which can be translated to "ultra Milan" or "super Milan",[1] is composed of two parts and depicts the city of Milan: factories, transportation (trains, cars, and carriages), people working, living, and socialising in the city.
[3] The film was produced and distributed during the time of Italy’s fascist regime (1922-1943).
[4] The film was supposed to demonstrate the modernity and industrialization or urban life.
However, the organisation was more concerned with newsreels and less about commercial films.
