Naples to New York (Italian: Napoli – New York) is a 2024 Italian period drama film, directed by Gabriele Salvatores and starring Pierfrancesco Favino, Dea Lazzaro and Antonio Guerra. It follows two Neapolitan children who secretly embark on a journey to New York City in an attempt to escape the poverty of post-war Italy.
The film is based on an unproduced screenplay written in the late 1940s by Federico Fellini and Tullio Pinelli, which Salvatores adapted for the screen more than seventy years later.
Upon release, the film received mixed to positive reviews from critics, who praised its visual style, cinematography, and emotional resonance, while criticizing its pacing and narrative structure. The film attracted attention both as a cinematic rediscovery of a "lost" Fellini work and as a contemporary interpretation of the migration experience.
