The documentary “1768 Days” by Marco Gallo offers a deep and chronological analysis of the life of Salvatore “Totò” Cuffaro, a significant but controversial political figure in Sicily. Filmed over seven years, this film explores not only Cuffaro’s political career, but also the significant personal and legal events that shaped him, including his arrest and subsequent conviction for crimes associated with the Mafia. Also interesting is the segment that follows Cuffaro on his trip to Burundi, highlighting a less well-known aspect of his life. The documentary uses a variety of narratives, including first-hand accounts from the former president, interviews with family members, and expert analysis, to paint a complex portrait of a man who continued to influence politics even after his conviction and incarceration.
