LUX SANTA
Directed by Matteo Russo (II). A must-see film Genre: Documentary, Italy, duration 73 minutes. In Crotone, on December 13 each year, Santa Lucia is celebrated by carrying on the tradition of the Fires: large wooden pyramids are built and set ablaze by groups of young people and adults from different city districts, competing to create the tallest structure and the most beautiful bonfire. This ancient rite symbolically aims to restore sight to Santa Lucia, who was blinded according to legend, and becomes a moment of unity for boys sharing problematic lives of poverty and shortages in a complex setting, such as the Fondo Gesù district.
