Astor Morgan returns to "In Discussion" to talk about his second journey to Sicily to photograph the Feast of St. Agatha. This remains the most important religious festival in the city of Catania.

In the spring of 2010, he again created a body of work during the festival, working in crowded and at times dangerous conditions.
