LIBERA NOS shows authentic and direct pictures of the daily life of three priests, who practise exorcism on the island of Sicily. The director Federica Di Giacomo dispenses without any frills and effects; she places the people and their psyche in the foreground of this fearless documentary. This results in a contrast between medieval and post modern cultural techniques, which confronts the audience with the absurd seriousness of the topic. Without commentary or reservation, the camera sets out to find the answer to a question, which is more likely to be found in psychiatry than in theology. Here belief and disbelief are very close together.
