About this Event
The Consulate General of Italy and the Italian Cultural Institute in Los Angeles cordially invite you to a special screening of "Paolo Vive", a docu-film directed by Debora Scalzo, presented on the occasion of the national Day of Remembrance and Commitment in Remembrance of Innocent Victims of the Mafia.
Through the voices of those who knew him and the echoes of a city forever changed, Paolo Vive paints a profound portrait of justice, sacrifice, and resilience. The documentary unfolds in two interwoven narratives: on one side, the tireless fight of Judge Paolo Borsellino—brought to life through the powerful performance of Bruno Torrisi—reveals his unwavering commitment to dismantling the mafia. On the other side, intimate testimonies from colleagues, friends, and citizens of Palermo offer a deeply personal reflection on the impact of his work and the void left by his tragic assassination in 1992. Through rare archival footage and previously unseen accounts, Paolo Vive not only commemorates Borsellino’s indelible legacy but also ignites a call to action for future generations. It is a testament to the enduring power of courage and integrity in the face of fear, ensuring that his fight for justice continues to inspire and guide the path forward.
