The Italian

As a Comedy-Drama, 'The Italian' primarily evokes Humor from the protagonist's elaborate and increasingly complicated deception of pretending to be Italian while secretly observing Ramadan. This comedic tension is strongly complemented by Anxiety, as the audience feels the constant pressure and fear of his true identity being exposed. Empathy is also a significant emotion, as viewers connect with his predicament and the internal struggle between his two identities. Joy and Happiness are present through his initial success and the potential for a positive resolution, while Love reflects his relationships. Moments of Sadness and Melancholy arise from the challenges of his deception and the search for his authentic self, balanced by Hope for a favorable outcome.
