The Sicilian Girl

Rome...1992. What I want, after my death, is a burial with very few people: just the ones who helped me do justice. My mother shall absolutely not be present...nor able to see me after my death... Those words are the ones Rita Atria sealed in her diary. On November 5, 1991, the 17-year-old Sicilian girl appeared before the anti-mafia judge to avenge the murders of her father and brother, both members of La Cosa Nostra. For the first time, a young girl originally from a Mafia family breaks the law of silence. From that moment, her days are numbered. She only has 9 months left to live. BASED ON THE TRUE STORY of Rita Atria and the Judge Paolo Borsellino.
