DramaHistory

On March 16, 1978, far-left terrorists of the Red Brigades kidnap Aldo Moro, leader of the Christian Democracy, the ruling party in Italy since the end of WWII. 55 days later, his body will be found in the trunk of a car. This is a neutral and factual account of what happened in between.

VIBE

A chillingly detached and methodical procedural that captures the suffocating tension of a nation held hostage. It’s a stark, fact-driven descent into a political abyss, leaving you with a profound sense of dread and historical weight.
