Addio a Emanuele Macaluso: "Ne è valsa la pena" il docufilm per i 90 anni

At 96, the former senator, one of the protagonists of Italian history, dies. This documentary tells the story of a life spent in politics. "He navigated the twentieth century as if it were a novel. He carried out major public responsibilities from a very young age: head of the Sicilian CGIL (Italian General Confederation of Labour) at 23, leader of the PCI (Italian Communist Party) regional deputies at 28, with whom he masterminded the controversial Milazzo operation, a parliamentarian for seven terms, editor of L'Unità, and a personal friend of Napolitano, Berlinguer, Guttuso, Sciascia, and Di Vittorio. At sixteen, he miraculously escaped tuberculosis. In the 1940s, he ended up in prison for adultery. In 1960, he was a fugitive for eight months in a farmhouse near Modena because, according to the law of the time, the children he had with Lina, a "woman already married," could not be his, following a complaint from the DC, which thought this would put him out of action. Great loves, but also terrible pain." The Portrait, by Concetto Vecchio https://www.repubblica.it/politica/20... Subscribe to Repubblica: https://s.repubblica.it/scopridipiu .
