My Name Is Tanino

Twenty-year-old Tanino (newcomer Corrado Fortuna) has a holiday romance with American tourist Sally (Canadian Rachel McAdams, recently seen in Mean Girls) in his Sicilian hometown, and mistakes it for something serious. He decides to set out for the New World, in search of Sally and the American Dream. What follows is a series of American misadventures as Tanino's illusions are shattered, his naivety lands him in plenty of trouble, and he meets up with his dubious idol, an underground filmmaker living on the skids in New York City. Much of the film was shot in Toronto.
