The Burning of a Sicilian Whore
In 17th century Sicily women are actioned off like objects, but Giulia Tofana is not like any other woman.

Giulia Tofana seizes her own sovereignty in her unique way.

Questioning what justice looks like, she becomes the louder, most revolutionary and provocative voice of that time.

In this tale, inspired by fact, we will embark upon the journey that leads a woman of humble origins from being a courtesan to becoming the most prolific serial killer of all time.
