The bond between the people of Crotone and the Madonna of Capocolonna is something that goes far beyond faith. This has been established since time immemorial. This visceral love is at the center of the anthropological documentary “Madre” created by the Crotone director Alessandra Manfredi, who in these days – inside the Torre Aidiante of the Castle of Charles V – is proposing an extract of the work which – in the extended form – it will be screened next year, during the celebrations of the Madonna di Capocolonna with great pomp on the occasion of the Jubilee. “Mother” was born from his degree thesis, and tells the story of the attachment of the people of Crotone to their co-patron saint. The screening of the extract from the documentary is part of a much larger installation inside the Crotone fortress created by the architect Raffaele Caccavo, in which the roots and traditions of the Crotone community emerge.
