A celebration on the island of Stromboli was interrupted by police after officers enforced a local rule that restricts music on Wednesdays. The event was a wrap party for a film shoot and included well known actors and musicians.
The gathering took place after filming ended for the movie Three Incestuous Sisters. Guests included Mick Jagger along with cast members such as Dakota Johnson, Jessie Buckley, Saoirse Ronan, and Josh O’Connor.
What happened at the event
Music was played through a small speaker at a low level. Police from the local force arrived and asked for the music to stop. Guests complied without resistance, and the celebration ended shortly after.
Local officials confirmed that the intervention followed a standing rule that limits music on Wednesdays across the island region, which is managed under Lipari administration.
Some local tourism representatives criticized the decision. They argued that the event supported visibility for the island and brought attention to its economy during the filming period.
Local reaction and debate
A tourism office representative said the enforcement felt too strict and suggested that visitors should have been welcomed more positively. The comment reflected frustration over how local regulations were applied during a high profile international production.
At the same time, authorities defended the enforcement as part of standard rules that apply to all public gatherings, regardless of visitors or events.
Film production background
The film Three Incestuous Sisters is directed by Alice Rohrwacher and is based on a graphic novel. The story focuses on three sisters whose isolated lives change after a new arrival disrupts their world.
The cast also includes Isabella Rossellini. Her participation adds a personal link to the island, since her family has historic ties to earlier films shot in the same region.
Why Stromboli is significant
Stromboli is known for its active volcano and has long been a filming location due to its dramatic landscape. The island also follows strict local rules to manage tourism, noise, and community life.
