In Sicily: Land of Love and Strife, A Filmmaker's Journey, the process of capturing the island nation on film is revealed. A country rich with natural beauty and historic sites, and a people distinguished by their passion, struggles, philosophy, and the depth and diversity of their culture, has unfortunately been overshadowed by its association with organized crime. Spano invites the listener to follow him on his journey to celebrate the real Sicily, and to change the public perception of his family’s homeland.
