Napoli. 1983. Naples. 1983. Due to damage caused by ground subsidence, the women’s prison in Pozzuoli is closed and the inmates temporarily transferred to other prisons in the region. Some of them are temporarily housed at the Nisida Juvenile Detention Centre. Meanwhile, Eduardo De Filippo, appointed Senator for life, visits Nisida on several occasions, contributes to the refurbishment of the prison theatre and establishes a school of stagecraft and a drama school, sending actors from his company to stage the first theatrical performance in an Italian juvenile detention centre.
