Aroview: An epic Italian political drama, charting in a non-linear fashion the true story of Sicilian bandit Salvatore Giuliano, a criminal and celebrated hero in Sicily in the 1940's.

Director Francesco Rosi (HANDS OVER THE CITY) brilliantly captures the political and social unrest of the era, filming on location with a cast of local Sicilians to increase the film's impressive authenticity. Depicting the tangled relations between citizens, the Mafia and the government, this is a groundbreaking film in the Italian neo-realist canon.

A treasure trove of special features, including a 55 minute documentary about the director, awaits you on disc 2.
