Napoli Napoli Napoli is not only a portrait of the city itself, but a deep sight into its humanity, vital and brutal, passionate and cruel at the same time. While interviewing a group of female convicts in Pozzuoli State Prison, Abel Ferrara was deeply impressed by their statements, such harsh and fatalistic. By interweaving reality and fiction, this innovative docu-film is a complex and compelling mosaic, like the city of Naples is, such fascinating and indecipherable at the same time.
