Roberta Torre's Angela is a love story set in the mob world. Angela (Donatella Finocchiaro) is a woman devoted to her older gangster husband, Saro (Mario Pupella). When Masino (Andrea Di Stefano) goes to work for Saro, Angela and Masino begin an affair. Their illicit relationship is discovered when the cops raid the shoe store where she works. The police offer to destroy the evidence of her affair if she will turn on her husband, but she refuses. Angela was screened during the Directors Fortnight at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival.
