Il Postino was filmed in 1994 and quickly became one of the world's favourite foreign language movies, with the performance of lead actor Massimo Troisi touching the hearts of millions with his innocent attempts at writing poetry under the tutelage of the legendary Pablo Neruda. The film and the folklore surrounding it hold a special place in the life of Procida as much of the film was shot here on location. 

As you move around the island you'll frequently find references to the film whether it's in the name of a restaurant, a beach or a hotel.
