The 2014 film "My Italian Secret" tells the story of cycling idol Gino Bartali, Dr. Giovanni Borromeo, and other courageous Italians who carried out ingenious schemes to rescue Jews, partisans and refugees from Nazi-occupied Italy.

"My Italian Secret" will be screened at the Ives (Main) Branch of the New Haven Free Public Library on Tuesday, April 24 at 5:30 p.m. to be followed by a presentation by Oren Jacoby, the film's director, screenwriter and producer.

The film is being presented by New Haven Bike Month in honor of Gino Bartali, the Tour de France and Giro d' Italia cycling champion who risked his life to save Italian Jews by smuggling fake identification documents in the frame of his bicycle among other heroic acts.
