Shooting The Mafia (15)

Born in 1935 in Palermo, Letizia Battaglia discovered her passion for photography in her mid-30s following her divorce. She gained a formidable reputation as a photojournalist by daring to point her camera at members of the Cosa Nostra to chronicle their rule on the streets of Sicily. This documentary pays tribute to a defiant and courageous trailblazer, now 84-years-old, who risked her life to capture the harsh realities of crime and punishment in modern Italy.
