The third, Sicilian part of the “Films of Europe” cycle inspires from the testamentary document written by Pasolini not long before his death, which metaphorically communicated his political despair about the “disappearance of the fireflies,” and Didi-Huberman’s reply. Vincent Dieutre travels across the far south of Europe in search of today’s “fireflies” who invent a political life on a daily basis. The filmmaker finds them, on the way, in Palermo’s first gay demonstration, among the occupants of the Garibaldi Theatre, or the young militants of Lampedusa. Dieutre’s essay-film comments on contemporary Sicilian society, the state of politics in Italy and Europe today.

Girl in a Blue Dress

This life-size portrait of a girl is a fine example of the British art of portrait painting in the early 18th century. The child is shown posing on a terrace, which is enclosed at the right foreground by the plinth of a pillar; the background is mainly filled with trees and shrubs.
