Santa Scorese was a young and devout Catholic from the Italian province of Bari. She was full of life and loved by everyone around her when she first met her stalker, who went on to harass her for a good three years before stabbing her on her own doorstep in front of her parents, on the night of 15 March 1991. She was 23 years old. In Santa Subito, Alessandro Piva (La Capa Gira, Pasta Nera) reconstructs the story of the sadly predictable fate of this rather special young woman, for whom the Church has now set in motion the beatification process.
