Catania, today. Old and new traditions that mark time in an almost world, in which the only certainty is a volcano in eruption. A documentary about the deep south, that can both enchant with the procession of Saint Agatha and construct a sophisticated processor in Catania’s silicon valley. A rhapsodic investigation in which the camera passes from hand to hand, and face to face, to reveal a Sicily that is contemporary and changeless. All under the impending figure of cursed rock, the singer Perry Farrell, who in the film becomes the symbol of impossible rebellion. An improbable, sensual and eccentric portrait, as politically incorrect as life itself.
