Malocchio Moderno

This documentary will venture into a part of Italian culture rarely discussed. It is something that is only whispered to people you trust. It is a fear embedded into the Italian culture as far back as the Roman empire. The Malocchio, aka the evil eye. A superstition held by almost every culture, in some shape or form, across the globe; however, the Italian culture has only recently tried to rationalize this phenomenon by making it prevalent in its pop culture. Yet, even a non-believer will shy away from conversations with Malocchio. It is a fear instilled in our DNA and has adversely affected the children of landed immigrants to Canada.
