With Stefania’s daughter by his side, he reached the place as a surprise. I was there, ready to discreetly and professionally document every single moment, allowing the spontaneity of what was about to happen to unfold naturally. When their eyes met, time seemed to slow down. Stefania’s amazement, her daughter’s radiant joy, the emotion taking shape through hands reaching for each other. And then the gesture that changes everything: Giovanni kneeling down, letting the heart speak. Amid the geometry of the Teatro di Andromeda and the endless Sicilian horizon, a new chapter of their story began.
