Mafioso

1962 NR 1h 45m 7.6

When a good-natured factory supervisor living in Milan with his Northern wife returns to his native Sicily, a decades'-old oath forces him to fulfill a nightmarish obligation.

Antonio is a jolly, precise fellow working for an auto factory in northern Italy. He decides to take his wife and two daughters on vacation to Sicily so they can finally see his hometown and meet his family. He's excited to show them around and dispel many of the negative stereotypes about Sicilians. He even dispels stereotypes about the Mafia, saying that being a mafioso as a teen amounted to just being a messenger boy. But as Antonio reconnects with his past in Sicily, he realizes that there are more sides to being a Sicilian than he remembers.
