The Sililian Girl is a true story about a female living in Sicily during the late 20th century. What she did was so profound and unheard of that she will always be remembered. Her name was Rita Mancuso, at the age of 11 years old she saw her father killed. She saw her father as a honest man and would always be great in her eyes. When she found out that her uncle was responsible for the murder of her father she sought out to get revenge, hoping to kill him. She kept a journal of everything that she observed that her mafia family was doing. When her brother was killed, she was alone. Her mother had always hated her for having all her husbands attention. She finally went to the police to get help. She rated out the mafia and in doing so she had to accept that her father wasn't as noble as she thought. She was finally left alone because the mafia killed everyone that mattered to her. She ended her life.
The ending shows how Rita life effected all those in Sicily.
