Filming has begun in Messina on Caravaggio: the secret of light, the new feature-length documentary directed by Paolo Benvenuti, produced by the Sardinian company Terra de Punt in co-production with the Belgian Harald House and the British Hoxtonlab, with the executive production of the Messina company Italy Unlocked, made with the support of the Ministry of Culture – Directorate General for Cinema and Audiovisual, the Sicilian Region and the Me.SSin.A Foundation.
The set started at the Forte degli Inglesi of Capo Peloro, on the extreme tip of Sicily overlooking the Strait, thanks to the collaboration with the Horcynus Orca Foundation. In the next few weeks the troupe will work between Capo Peloro and the MuMe – Regional Interdisciplinary Museum of Messina, where the Resurrection of Lazarus is kept.
