Shooting the Mafia

Kim Longinotto's »Shooting the Mafia« is a story about one woman's battle with the Sicilian mafia. Letizia Battaglia, a journalist with a passion for photography, shot her first snapshot of a murder executed by Cosa Nostra during the very early days at her newspaper job in Palermo in the 1970's. During the following decades she attained more and more gruesome images, compiling "an archive of blood", as she herself calls it. (stockholmfilmfestival.se)
