They died twenty and thirty years ago. Down in Palermo. They knew that they would be stopped sooner or later. They scared the powers that be. Italians who were too different and too alone to have another fate. Silence was all around them. Within an inch. Pio La Torre, Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa, Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino. Lives that had slipped into sombre public isolation. Until the ambushes, the bombs. These four Italians became an example for Italy only after their funerals. “I saw them alive and I saw them dead. I knew many of the people who had crossed their tormented paths, the few friends, the many enemies and those who were indifferent. I had met La Torre and General Dalla Chiesa as a young reporter working for the L’Ora newspaper. As a La Repubblica correspondent in Sicily for a quarter of a century, the bond was deeper with Falcone and Borsellino” writes journalist and author Attilio Bolzoni, the protagonist of the documentary film Lone men.
