The Wildside company, which is taking care of the executive production of the new film by Cristopher Nolan “The Odyssey”, will also be able to shoot on the stone rock of the bathroom and on the Basiluzzo islet, in the Aeolian archipelago.
The authorization decree, after the positive decision of the Regional Specialist Technical Commission (CTS) on the environmental incidence evaluation, was signed by the Regional Councilor for the Territory and the Environment Giusi Savarino.
“As we had already done for filming on the island of Favignana, in the Egadi – says Savarino – we acted with the utmost speed because as a region we support these international initiatives that give prestige to our Sicily. We have obviously established rules and place of limits, in compliance with the flora and fauna of the areas concerned, and we will watch over their respect, but I am sure that from this project important repercussions will derive for the Aeolian Islands in terms of tourist flows and therefore of economic growth, in addition to the positive effects that we will have for the enhancement of the territory. Soon, spectators around the world will be able to look at some of the exceptional beauties of our natural heritage ».
