Un mondo a parte (2024) is an Italian comedy directed by Riccardo Milani, starring Antonio Albanese and Virginia Raffaele. The film follows Michele Cortese, a veteran teacher who, after decades in Rome, transfers to a small school in Abruzzo’s National Park.

He soon faces the threat of closure due to declining enrollment, prompting him to fight passionately to save the school. Praised for its sensitive portrayal of rural depopulation and educational challenges, the film achieved commercial success, grossing over €6 million.

Raffaele’s performance earned her a prestigious Nastro d’Argento award, highlighting the movie’s charm and social relevance.
