Once upon a time in Sicily, there were seven sisters who lived in Palermo.
An untimely death plunges the sisters into their own divine tragedy, this one created by Emma Dante, a ferocious Sicilian theater artist and award-winning writer, actor, producer and director of plays, operas and films.
In her raucous, poetic fable, these vibrant, funny sisters are as likely to throw shoes or crucifixes at one another as they are to share secrets. They command the stage, quarrelling and reminiscing, in this empathetic and uncompromising look at the chains of family and tradition.
Emma Dante, the acclaimed Italian theater artist often mentioned in the same sentence with Dario Fo and Romeo Castellucci, "uses a scalpel lightly coated with black humor," according to Variety.
