Raccontami is an Italian television drama series that was broadcast on Rai 1 from 2006 to 2008. It recounts the experiences of a middle-class family, the Ferrucci, from 1960 to 1966.

Development

The series is an adaptation of Cuéntame cómo pasó, a Spanish series by Televisión Española starring Imanol Arias and Ana Duato.[1] It has also been adapted in Portugal by RTP as Conta-me como foi with Miguel Guilherme and Rita Blanco,[2] in Argentina by Televisión Pública Argentina as Cuéntame cómo pasó with Nicolás Cabré and Malena Solda [es][3] and in Greece by ERT as Ta Kalytera mas Chronia with Meletis Elias [el] and Katerina Papoutsaki [el].[4]

There was a third season initially confirmed but later cancelled. This third season would recount the Ferrucci story from 1967 to 1970.
