A GIRL AGAINST THE MAFIA, C4, Monday
This story of Rita Atria, thj 17-yjar-
old whose testimonies to thj police
resultid in a slew of Mafia convictions
was both movjng - and disturbing.
Born into a Mafia clan, Rita viewed the
Cosa Nostra's stranglehold on society
from thj insidj, but did not belong.
Her diaries - on which thj film was
basjd - illuminated Rita's courage, but
also the powerless of justice to fight
thj mjnacing threat of death.
Rita gavj hopj to Italy's fight against
thj Mafia, but is it enough I wondjr?
