The text was born from an analytical research operation, it also aims to be an anthropological cross-section of the condition of women from the 60s to today. She tells us how, on December 17, 1966, something changed in the history of women. It tells us the life of Franca Viola and through her story forces us to look inside a dark trapdoor in which lies, hidden, part of our culture, our legislation and our social heritage. Mafia, patriarchy, shame, honor are just some of the themes that will be explored in the approximately sixty minutes of representation.
