Sicily, early 2000s. After spending several years in prison for his mafia involvement, Catello, a career politician, has lost everything. When the Italian intelligence service asks for his help in capturing Matteo, his godson and the last prominent fugitive mafia boss, Catello seizes the opportunity to get back in the game.

Sicilian Letters, the new film from Sicilian writer-directors Fabio Grassadonia and Antonio Piazza (Salvo, Haifa IFF 2013), comes to Haifa directly from its world premieres at Venice and Toronto. The film brings together two of Italy's top actors—Elio Germano and Toni Servillo—to tell the story of Cosa Nostra boss Matteo Messina Denaro, “the last godfather.”

Filmography: Sicilian Ghost Story (2017), Salvo (2013).
