Erica studied English at school, but was lucky enough, during high school, to travel to a country where English was spoken every day. That's where she learned the most, by living and breathing it.

Ennio Morricone talks about what it means to be a composer and Nicola Piovani talks about the music he composed for Ennio Morricone's birthday celebrations in his later years.

Erica describes one of the workshops she does for kids. It's all about learning how prehistoric man made fire from materials found in nature. Stay tuned for a practical demonstration of this!

Normally, someone else writes your obituary when you die, but Ennio Morricone wrote his own! His attorney was authorized to read it aloud in public, and here it is.

Erica welcomes us to the tourist office where she works. She tells us all about it.

Erica, from a small city in Tuscany, talks about her great passion: archeology. She has been lucky enough to be able to combine this passion with another one — tourism – in her current job.

Falling in love doesn't follow scientific rules. Silvana and Luciano tell us about how they met and their plans, now that they are of a certain age.

Andromeda, a true animal lover, tells us another story of an abandoned animal, this time a very unlucky cat.

Andromeda tells us about rescuing an old dog who was destined for the dog pound. Now he's a member of the family, but it wasn't easy.

After Philip's baptism, there is a banquet with typical Sicilian food, and favors for the guests. And there also happens to be a stunning view of Palermo from the convent or monastery hosting the party.

After the baptism ceremony in the Palatine Chapel, Adriano takes us to another historically and artistically rich site in Palermo: the Convento di Baida [Baida Abbey]. In Italian, the term convento is used more commonly than monastero [monastery] and may house either male or female religious communities.

Adriano has invited us to the baptism of his son Philip. It allows us to get a glimpse of one of the most beautiful places to visit in Palermo, the Palatine Chapel. The priest tells the congregation about the consecration of this famous basilica in 1040.

Now that Arianna has explained what dubbing is, she demonstrates the dubbing process itself, using a video from Yabla English.

Dubbing has all sorts of uses, but certainly one of the most fascinating ones is making us believe an actor is speaking our language when we go to see a foreign film. Arianna takes us through the basic phases.

The second part of Via dell’inferno (Hell Road/Road to Hell) where songwriter Davide Ravera creates an atmosphere of cold winter, tears, music, freedom, longing for home, and beginning again.

Ezio comes from the north of Italy, but has been living for nearly ten years in Sicily, and more exactly in Marsala. He loves music, and at night he often goes to clubs, where he joins in, playing his harmonica with different bands.

Pupazzo is the word for "doll," but Federica has transformed it (as she likes to do with words) into pupezza because pezzo means "piece," and as you will see, she uses pieces or scraps to make these dolls. Federica uses these rag/paper dolls as a means for looking deeper inside herself, at the dark as well as the light parts. It is part of a kind of therapy she uses to help others discover hidden areas inside themselves, by means of creative imagination.

Federica conducts art workshops for children and adults. Participants use paper, often recycled, to create highly personal books.

Federica Reale is a Genovese artist who now lives in Rome. She tells us her story and how she uses it in her art.

Erica and Martina talk about their friendship, which started in the first year of high school and continues today.

Nineteen-year-old Martina tells us about herself. Her dreams have changed over the years, and she now has some concrete, long-term, and clearcut goals.

Adriano visits a Palermo antique dealer, Massimo Sgroi, who also exhibits the work of contemporary artists. Sgroi invites Yabla friends to submit work.

A young university student tells us about her interests as a kid, how her ideas changed as she grew up, and what her dream is.

Noemi Bossolo is an aspiring singer from Marsala, Sicily. She sings some lines from her favorite songs, and is joined by her parents, who speak about her training.
