Aki grew up on Sicily. On the 23rd of May 1992, the mafia blew up the highway behind his grandmother’s house, killing judge Giovani Falcone. A Millennial History on organised crime, undermining in all corners of society, dangerous myth-making and the powerful Sicilian mantra that rose from this fight.
In Millennial History, we relive recent history through the eyes of millennials who were there when it happened. In interviews with musical journalist Andrea Voets, they unpack their ‘deep story’: the reality as they experienced it as children. Eight episodes take us to the murder of anti-mafia judge Falcone in Sicily, the unwanted ‘Children of the Decree’ of Ceausescu in Romania, The Troubles in Northern Ireland and change and unification in East Germany. The music has been offered by sixty bands from these four places. Hundreds of layers of sound & music enable bold and meaningful conversations.
