Danièle Huillet

This stunning restoration of Straub-Huillet’s tragicomic and lyrical masterwork centers on life and its many struggles on the island of Sicily. One of the duo’s most beguiling films, Sicilia! offers unique reflections on travel and homeland, cooking, politics, family, and so much more.

A masterpiece about the making of a masterpiece, this crepuscular portrait of Straub-Huillet’s creative process has been described by Pedro Costa as both his first comedy and his first love story. Intimate and illuminating, it’s an indispensable lesson in filmmaking from three titans of cinema.
