A new feature-length documentary created to change public perception of Sicily, will be shown in New York City for the first time, when the Bernie Wohl Center at 647 Columbus Avenue presents “Sicily: Land of Love & Strife” on Wednesday, September 12, at 7:30 p.m.
“But for crime, Sicily has gone unexplored,” said the film’s writer/producer/director Mark Spano. “The island’s association with the Mafia, so deeply entrenched in popular consciousness, has obscured more rounded and accurate depictions of its history and culture.”
