(ANSA) - ROME, FEBRUARY 13 - A real Greek tragedy tinged with horror is the one that offers UNA FEMMINA first work by Francesco Costabile, which is now in the competitive Panorama section of the 72nd edition of the Berlin Film Festival.
Dark, full of blood and revenge, the film, shot in the mountains of Calabria, tells a story of 'Ndrangheta starring Rosa (the newcomer Lina Siciliano), a real natural mask that imposes respect and fascinates.
This indomitable and fearless girl, who lives with her grandmother and uncle in a Calabrian village lost in the Pollino national park, as she grows up she discovers in her past a shadow to heal.
Since then, the girl, full of temperament, has been harboring a rage that leads her to seek a personal blood revenge, even if it means betraying her family and values.
And this with all the risks it entails.
But as the film shows - in cinemas from 17 with Medusa and freely inspired by the novel FIMMINE REBELLI.
HOW WOMEN WILL SAVE THE COUNTRY OF N'DRANGHETA by Lirio Abbate-, her revolt is the signal of a possible revolution that only the female gender can make.
