Feltrin-Morris also introduced the film, Si può fare (Giulio Manfredonia, 2008), at Convivio, a creative writers' symposium in Postignano, Italy (https://www.convivioconference.org/). The film, set in the 1980s after the Basaglia Law closed mental hospitals in Italy, deals with the creation of various alternatives for patients. At the same symposium, Feltrin-Morris and Chad Davidson (University of West Georgia) led a discussion on "Reading and Misreading Dante," focusing on Canto XXXIII of Dante's Inferno.
