The situated one of Mura Pregne (with the originals Cyclopean masonry and the dolmenica structure) and the rests of the fortified medieval center of Brucato (with the evocative ruderi of the given back Church of Sant` Elia and the numerous ones an archeological find from the digging campaigns), makes of the territory of Sciara one of more; interesting of the province of Palermo from the archeological point of view.
Country founded from the Notabartolo in XVII the century, native land of Salvatore Carnevale (that it paid with the life the fight for the performance of the land reforms of last years 50), Sciara conserve memory of its past in the rimaneggiato feudale castle, the Etno-Antropologico Museum and the viario system to chessboard in the which snodano more important processioni of the religious tradition, from that one of Patron (the SS. Crocifisso), to those of Sant` Eligio (with the raid by horseback and the racing silk) and of the Immaculate one (that begins the night and is concluded to the dawn).
Place to the margins of the Saint Mount reservoir natural Calogero, receptive center for the naturalistic and gastronomico tourism, Sciara is famous for the production of the carciofo to which every year, in spring, it comes dedicated one sacred.
In testifying the values of a noble country in the feelings, ancient in the heart, modern in the spirit, this documentary wants to be a homage to the legitimate desire that pervade the sciaresi to value and to embezzle to the incuria those assets that of their long history constitute the memory.
