The Assassination of Matteotti
HistoryDrama
How the Italian Fascist Party managed to turn the physical elimination of a political enemy into a test of strength fundamental for the ascent into the totalitarian regime.
VIBE
A chillingly methodical descent into the machinery of political power. It feels like watching history's gears grind, heavy with the weight of inevitable, oppressive change. A stark, somber examination of how tyranny takes root.
