Join us for a Q&A with Paola Sini, the actress of the film, after the conclusion of the screening
A masterpiece that won the award for Best Film and the Jury Award at the Al Ain International Film Festival.
Fidela, the seventh daughter of a local woman, is seen as a disgrace due to ancient superstitions that label seventh daughters as witches, known as “Coga.” Only her older sister, Marianna, welcomes her with love. Growing up isolated, Fidela develops a deep connection with Sardinian nature. In Sardinia, it was believed that a seventh daughter was a witch and stripped of her rights as a woman. The village witch could not have contact with men but was expected to assist other women in giving birth.
