The uncle from Brooklyn

In an apocalyptic Palermo, the Gemelli family is forced to shelter and hide an uncle from Brooklyn. The request comes from the Dwarves mafia clan – and refusing them is simply not an option. The mysterious guest neither speaks, nor sleeps, nor eats, while a cast of strange, unsettling figures circles around him. As in the sketches of Cinico TV, Palermo becomes a desolate landscape inhabited by a brutalised, ghostly humanity. The cultural genocide foretold by Pier Paolo Pasolini has come to pass.
