This tour invites participants to move beyond cinematic clichés and superficial perceptions to engage directly with the history and current reality of the anti-mafia movement. By exploring the city through this lens, visitors gain a deeper understanding of the social dynamics that have shaped this historic Sicilian capital over many decades.
