No music, everyone goes to bed. Who knows what words the Stromboli Carabinieri used to ask Mick Jagger to stop attending a party with the cast and crew of Alice Rohrwacher's film "Three Incestuous Sisters", in which the singer plays a caretaker? On the little Sicilian island where the narrative takes place, music is prohibited on weekdays. It appears that no exceptions are made, even if the Rolling Stones frontman and founder were dancing, as well as actors Dakota Johnson, Saoirse Ronan, Jessie Buckley, Josh O'Connor, and Isabella Rossellini. The interruption was respected. The crew left the island the day after the failed celebration, but Rosa Oliva, president of the Pro Loco "Amo Stromboli", criticized the authorities' rigidity. "It's yet another sign", she said, "that an area that, rather than being valued and supported after a winter of severe shortages and neglect, finds itself penalized even in its moments of social gathering and visibility". She further stated, "One would have anticipated a welcome from the mayor of Lipari, Riccardo Gullo, or at the very least a greeting and a thank you for their significant contributions to the Aeolian economy and their visibility. Our islands rely on tourism".
