The interview started with a short introduction about Carmelo La Magra's childhood and background. The focus shifted to the religious feast of Our Lady of Lampedusa: symbolism, procession, relations between church and mayor (secular authority), organisation, etc. In the last part of the interview, La Magra described the history of the Sanctuary and its symbolic place on the Island: a place of refuge, freedom, safety and a place where Islam and Catholicism coexisted peacefully for centuries.

This ceramic artefact is important because it represents Our Lady of Trapani. The cult of Our Lady of Trapani is related to that of Our Lady of Lampedusa. On the left side of the plate is the representation of Andrea Anfossi, whose legend was recounted during the interview with Carmelo La Magra.
