"The hundred steps" is a 2000 film directed by Marco Tullio Giordana, with Luigi Lo Cascio, Luigi Burruano, dedicated to the life and murder of Peppino Impastato, an activist involved in the fight against Cosa Nostra in his land, Sicily. < br> The film reconstructs the story of Peppino Impastato, born in Cinisi a hundred steps from the house of Tano Badalamenti, a powerful mafia boss of which Peppino's father was a relative and a follower. The young Peppino, deaf to warnings and warnings, rebelled against the excessive power of Badalamenti and for this reason, in 1978, he was killed.
The set was rebuilt in the places where the events really took place, in Cinisi and Terrasini. Piazza Vittorio Emanuele Orlando in Cinisi appears, the place where Stefano Venuti holds a harsh invective against the mafia, in front of the little Impastato. The house where Peppino Impastato lives in the film is his real home, while the house where Tano Badalamenti lives in the film is in the same street but it is not the real home of the mafia boss. The Lungomare Peppino Impastato in Terrasini also appears, where the villa where the meeting between Impastato and the boys of the municipality is located.
