This week’s documentary film curated by the editorial team at 21WIRE.

This film combines dramatic recreations and real archive footage showing the rise of the fascism movement after WWI in Italy, followed by the consolidation of state and corporate power during the rise of an infamous national figure, Benito Mussolini, and his Fascist Party and his hot and cold alliance with Germany’s Adolf Hitler – which ended in disaster for the Italian leader known as “El Duce.” A fascinating look at one of the darkest, and yet most iconic periods in Italian history.
