Oliver Stone was also among the audience that on the island of Salina (Aeolian Islands) applauded the documentary “Olio di famiglia” (“Family Oil”), which tells the 130-year history of the Barbera company, which produces world-renowned and appreciated oil. The documentary was screened as part of the 19th Salina Doc Festival, in the presence precisely of director Oliver Stone, who received the lifetime achievement award. “It was a unique emotion,” said Manfredi Barbera, CEO of Premiati Oleifici Barbera, "to meet one of the greatest masters of world cinema, and above all, it was certainly a special experience to have him as an exceptional spectator during the screening of our documentary in Salina. I am proud that he also manifested words of great appreciation towards our story that is made of vision and that courage that have also always characterized the stylistic signature of his cinema".
