The Mafia Kills Only in Summer, GFT, Friday 6 March, 2015
Winner of the European Film Award for Best Comedy and the David Di Donatello for Best New Director, The Mafia Kills Only in Summer is an inspired, coming of age comedy that pays heartwarming tribute to all of those who have fallen in the struggle against the Mafia. Arturo is born into a family where life is dominated by crime, corruption and execution. His childhood in 1970s Palermo is marked by his impossible love for classmate Flora and a devotion to Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti. True tales of those who gave their lives in the fight against organised crime are interwoven with Arturo’s story in a rollicking film that is funny, thought-provoking and unexpectedly moving.
