“Liliana” retraces the testimony of life senator Liliana Segre linked to her arrest, deportation and poignant final farewell to her father. The film is based on juxtapositions, cross-references and contrasts between the historical account and the contemporary portrait of one of the most important women on the Italian scene.
The docu-film highlights lesser-known aspects of the senator, revealing a modern cultural and political figure who is passionate about conveying a message of freedom and equality to the younger generations. The voices of people close to her tell her story: her children, grandchildren, public figures such as Ferruccio De Bortoli, Mario Monti, Geppi Cucciari, Fabio Fazio, Enrico Mentana, and the carabinieri of her escort, allowing us to get closer to a more familiar and private Liliana.
