Ballerina

by Len Wiseman

Taormina Ancient Theatre, Tuesday 10 June, 2025 @ 8:30pm

A projection within the Taormina FilmFest 2025
For more info click — > HERE

The film is the fifth theatrical installment in the franchise (not counting the 2023 miniseries and the comic book John Wick: The Book of Rules ) and takes place, chronologically, between the events of Chapter 3, Parabellum , and Chapter 4.

In the third chapter we discover a part of John Wick ‘s mysterious past , his ties to the Russian mafia – specifically to the Ruska Roma , the Russian Roma of Belarus – when Wick requests an interview with ” The Director “, a woman who is the head of the local organization and who took him in as a child when John was an orphan in Belarus.
