THE SICILIAN GIRL

July 29th, 2010

THE SICILIAN GIRL- 2009. By Marco Amenta. Premise by Netflix. “In this taut drama based on a true story, 17-year-old Rita (Veronica D’Agostino) is leading a privileged life when her father and brother are slain by rival Mafiosi. Bent on revenge, she turns to a sympathetic magistrate (GĂ©rard Jugnot) and breaks the code of silence. In her journey from self-centered teenager to fearless advocate for justice, Rita enrages Sicily’s most powerful men, putting her life in jeopardy.” Very good reviews.

2/11- More of a drama than a documentary, this film was beautifully acted and very realistic. Highly recommended. TRDB. Netflix Streaming. Also available on DVD.
