The Speed Cinema continues its mission of showing art films, new and old, with a two-day screening of “Miracle In Milan,” a 1951 imaginative fable about an impoverished community in post-war Italy.

The film — which won the Grand Prize at Cannes Film Festival in 1951 — will be shown at the Speed at 2 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 31 and at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 1. Tickets are $12 for the general public and $8 for Speed members.

A whimsical story of greedy developers and a resilient community, “Miracle In Milan” is in Italian with English subtitles.
