Any italian speakers here?
Is this italian? I'm trying to find out the backstory behind this, and am wondering what language they're speaking and what the name of the talk show is (if you're familiar with it, as I can't read the name on the sign)

2. I think it is
"questo dominco" is Italian - Questo is "this" I believe.

I don't speak it, but I know some words and have friends who do.

3. It is. It sounds like she may be asking, "What will the future be
like for our children" or something like that.

6. Yes. I don't have a translation but found this at Wikipedia:
On 2 November 2008, Andreotti appeared on the entertainment program Questa Domenica, broadcast on the Italian television channel Canale 5. During his appearance, he appeared to suffer health difficulties and there was speculation he had suffered a stroke. Andreotti was twice posed a question and simply failed to respond, although his eyes remained open. The director cut to an advertisement break, following which Andreotti reappeared in seemingly better condition. The incident was presented to the viewer as a consequence of technical difficulties. A clip of the moment in question is available on YouTube.
