Mishelle di Sant’Oliva's biography

Mishelle di Sant’Oliva

Mishelle di Sant’Oliva is the story of an always absent body; that of a mother who was a leading dancer at the Olympia of Paris, and of the two men facing the cruelty of having to be there only waiting. The father, Gaetano, and the son Salvatore, live in a very dirty and poor place. Meanwhile, the father dreams with an apparently happy past, as a way to deny the homosexuality of his son, who in the evening turns into a transvestite and prostitutes himself.
